Add chopped green chilies for some extra heat.
Cook the chicken mixture until the chicken is fully cooked and the juices have reduced.
Add shredded cabbage and grated carrot to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes on high flame, ensuring the vegetables remain slightly crunchy.

Pour in 300ml of water into the bowl.

Add 1/2 cup of refined flour (maida) to the egg mixture.
Mix all the ingredients well until the flour is fully incorporated and there are no lumps. The mixture should have a smooth consistency.
