                     Divide the dough into four equal portions and shape into balls, keep aside
                     For the filling, beat the egg in a bowl, add the crushed coconut , ginger garlic paste, chopped onion, green chilies and salt; mix well
                     Roll out each ball of dough into a 8 inch diameter paratha and place one-fourth of the filling at the centre of the paratha
                     Wrap the filling carefully from all sides to make a square
                     Heat one tablespoon of oil in a pan and place the paratha carefully in it without letting the filling come out
