To make rolls, take small portions from the dough and make balls. Flatten each ball over a rolling spin to form chapatti.
Heat a tawa and pour 1/2 tablespoon of oil. Place a rolled chapatti and let it get golden brown. Cook well on both sides
Whisk an egg with a pinch of salt in a separate bowl, and pour it over the roti on tawa. Let the egg stick well to the roti. Flip and cook well on both sides
To assemble the roll - Remove the egg -roti from heat. On the top of the chapatti, place paneer pieces vertically at the centre. Add some onion rings and green chilli, sprinkle black pepper powder.
Now carefully fold the chapatti to form a roll. Cook for few seconds and then serve hot.
