Step 1
Mix flour with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.25 cup water, then knead into a soft dough. Cover and let rest 5 minutes.
Step 2
Toss sliced red onion with lime juice, a pinch of salt, and half the cilantro. Set aside to pickle.
Step 3
Divide dough into 2 balls. Roll each into a thin 8-inch circle, brush with a little oil, and fold in half twice to form a triangle.
Step 4
Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Pan-fry each paratha 90 seconds per side until golden and crispy, pressing gently with a spatula.
Step 5
Push parathas to the side. Crack eggs into the skillet, season with salt and pepper, and scramble until cooked through, about 4 minutes.
Step 6
Plate each paratha with eggs, a dollop of yogurt, pickled onions, toasted cumin seeds, and remaining cilantro. Serve hot.
