In a large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and salt.
Gradually add water to the flour mixture, kneading until a smooth dough forms. This should take about 8-10 minutes.
Divide the dough into four equal parts, roll each into a ball, and coat them lightly with ghee.
Place the dough balls on a plate, cover with a damp cloth, and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, finely chop the onion and green chilies.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and mix in the chopped onion, green chilies, cilantro, and black pepper.
Once the dough has rested, take one dough ball and roll it out into a thin round, approximately 10 inches in diameter.
Heat a tablespoon of ghee in a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the rolled-out dough onto the skillet and pour a quarter of the egg mixture onto the center of the dough.
Quickly fold the edges of the dough over the egg mixture to encase it, forming a square or rectangular shape.
Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Repeat the rolling and cooking process with the remaining dough balls and egg mixture.
Once cooked, cut the roti into quarters and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce or curry.
