Set a small frying pan over a medium heat and add a little oil. Pour 2 spoons of lightly beaten egg into the pan, cook for a moment, stirring, then place a paratha on top, cook for a minute to set the egg before turning it over to cook through. Put it on a plate, spoon some of the chicken mix down the centre and roll it over the filling. Repeat with the remaining parathas.
