For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of tomato paste or a chopped tomato along with the cabbage. If you don't have paratha readily available, you can substitute with roti or even slightly stale pita bread. Adjust the amount of chili powder to your desired level of spice. Garnish with fresh cilantro or a squeeze of lime juice for a burst of freshness before serving.

Scramble the Eggs: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the beaten eggs and cook, stirring constantly, until they are scrambled and slightly dry, about 5 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Sauté the Aromatics and Vegetables: In a deep skillet or wok, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions become translucent, approximately 5 minutes. Add the carrots and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until they are nearly tender but still retain a slight crunch, about 7-8 minutes.
