Anda paratha or egg parotta, as it gets called in the south Indian states is a popular paratha. It’s made either with potatoes and egg or plain egg.

It’s popular street food in North India and goes very well with onion and tomato raita or any other gravy.

There can be several variations to this simple dish, like the addition of spices to make it more exotic. Mughlai paratha is also egg paratha, but minced meat is added to make it more wholesome.

The crispy, flaky and luscious Anda Paratha is a fabulous way to satisfy your hunger pangs.
