Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, rice flour, whole wheat flour, red chili powder, cumin, and salt. Gradually add water, mixing until a smooth, pourable batter forms. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter.

Prepare the Vegetables

  • Finely chop the onion, tomato, bell pepper, and green chilies.

Cook the Tiffin

  • Heat oil in a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Pour a small amount of batter onto the hot pan, spreading it into a thin, even circle (about 6 inches in diameter).
  • Cover the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and cooked through. Flip the tiffin and cook the other side for another 1-2 minutes.

Add Filling and Eggs

  • Spread the chopped onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, and green chilies evenly over the cooked side of the tiffin. Season lightly with salt.
  • Crack one egg over the vegetable filling. Carefully cover the pan and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the egg is cooked to your liking.

Finish and Serve

  • Carefully fold the tiffin in half. Slide it onto a plate and serve immediately. Repeat with remaining batter and eggs.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for the Perfect Egg Tiffin

  • For a spicier tiffin, add more green chilies or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the batter.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the filling, such as spinach, mushrooms, or potatoes.
  • If you prefer a crispier tiffin, cook it over slightly higher heat and don't cover the pan while cooking the vegetables and eggs.
  • For a richer flavor, add a teaspoon of ghee (clarified butter) to the pan along with the oil.
