Kampala's favorite street breakfast: a thin omelet loaded with cabbage, onion and tomato, cooked onto a warm flaky chapati and rolled up tight. Great on the go.

Ingredients

From your pantry: 2 tbsp oil, salt, pepper.

Instructions

  1. Cook the parathas in a dry nonstick skillet over medium until puffed and golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Keep warm under a towel.
  2. Beat the eggs with the cabbage, onion, bell pepper, cilantro, ½ tsp salt and pepper.
  3. Heat ½ tbsp oil in the skillet over medium. Pour in a quarter of the egg mixture and spread it to the size of the paratha. Cook until the bottom is set, about 2 minutes, then flip.
  4. Immediately press a paratha on top of the omelet and cook 1 minute so they stick together. Flip onto a board, egg side up.
  5. Lay tomato and avocado slices along the middle, roll up tightly and wrap the bottom in foil or paper. Repeat with the rest.

Tip: Shred the cabbage as finely as you can (a box grater works) so it softens in the time the eggs take to set.
