Ingredients

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • A pinch of garam masala
  • 2 green finger chillies, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon tomato purée
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon rapeseed oil (for basting)
  • 200g plain white or wholemeal flour, plus extra for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon rapeseed oil
  • 100ml semi-skimmed milk
  • 1 small egg
  • 3 small eggs, beaten (for coating parathas)
  • 2 red onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix chicken with garlic, ginger, cumin, turmeric, garam masala, chillies, tomato purée, and lemon juice. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 2 hours.
  2. Soak 6 wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Thread the marinated chicken and grill, bake, or barbecue at 180°C for 20 minutes, basting with oil halfway through. Ensure fully cooked, then set aside.
  3. For the parathas, sift flour into a large bowl. Add oil, milk, and 1 egg. Knead for 7–10 minutes until smooth. Cover with a damp cloth and rest for 20 minutes.
  4. Divide dough into 6 balls. Roll each into a 16–17cm circle (about 5mm thick) on a floured surface.
  5. Heat a frying pan and cook one paratha for 1 minute. Flip, spread 1–2 tbsp beaten egg on top, then flip again to cook the egged side for 30 seconds. Repeat with remaining dough and egg.
  6. To assemble, place cooked chicken in the center of each egg-coated paratha. Add sliced onions, roll tightly, and serve warm or cold.

Notes

  • Marinate chicken in advance to deepen flavor.
  • Use store-bought flatbreads in a pinch, but homemade egg parathas elevate the wrap.
  • Add chopped herbs or yoghurt-based sauce for variation.
  • Keep wraps refrigerated if preparing ahead.
  • Adjust spice levels by reducing or omitting green chillies.
