Tips, food safety & substitutions
Nutrition figures are estimates only. Seal the edges well so the egg and cheese filling does not leak. Allergens: egg, wheat (atta), milk (cheese, ghee). Pakistani alternative: use desi ghee and any mild local cheese; serve with plain dahi. Best eaten fresh off the tawa; wrap in cloth to keep soft for lunchboxes.
