Ingredients
- 2 standard eggs
- 1 medium-sized tomato, finely chopped
- 1 medium-sized onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium-sized cabbage, finely chopped or grated
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional but recommended)
- ½ tablespoon black pepper powder
- ½ tablespoon salt or to taste
- 2 East African chapati (homemade or purchased)

Method
- Heat a pan over medium heat.
- Crack the eggs in a medium sized bowl. Whisk in the onions, tomato, cabbage, coriander, salt, and pepper.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the hot pan, and pour in half the egg mixture. Allow it to cook for about 3 minutes.
- When the top is only a little wet, place a chapati over it.

- Roll the omelet up with the chapati on the outside.
- Wrap in foil and serve it immediately.
