## Ingredients List
To make **Egg Kothu Parotta**, you will need:

– 4 flaky parottas (store-bought or homemade)
– 3 large eggs
– 1 medium onion, finely chopped
– 2 green chilies, slit
– 2 tablespoons ginger-garlic paste
– 1 medium tomato, chopped
– ½ cup mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, and beans)
– 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
– 1 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
– ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
– 1 tablespoon garam masala
– 2 tablespoons oil or ghee
– Salt to taste
– Fresh coriander leaves, chopped (for garnish)

## Instructions/Steps
1. **Prepare the Parottas**: If using store-bought parottas, heat them in a pan until they are warm and slightly crisp. If using homemade parottas, cook them according to your recipe. Once cooked, chop them into small pieces and set aside.

2. **Scramble the Eggs**: In a bowl, beat the eggs and season with a pinch of salt. Heat a little oil in a large pan, add the beaten eggs, and scramble until fully cooked. Remove the scrambled eggs from the pan and set aside.

3. **Cook the Vegetables**: In the same pan, add the remaining oil. Once hot, add cumin seeds and let them splutter. Add the finely chopped onions and green chilies. Sauté until the onions turn translucent.

4. **Add Spices and Tomatoes**: Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute. Then add the chopped tomatoes, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and well blended.

5. **Combine Everything**: Add the mixed vegetables (if using) and cook for a few minutes until they are tender. Now, add the chopped parottas and scrambled eggs into the pan. Sprinkle the garam masala over the top and mix everything thoroughly.

6. **Garnish and Serve**: Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing all flavors to meld together. Remove from heat, garnish with fresh coriander leaves, and serve hot. Enjoy your homemade **Egg Kothu Parotta**!
