To make egg wrap, reheat the wrap cover with oil. Take it off. Now beat one egg, add salt and  a pinch of red chilly and pepper to it. Put one tspn oil on it on hot pan and spread it to make an omelette of the size of wrap cover. After it is cooked on one side, lay the wrap cover on the other (uncooked) side. Turn over, put a layer of green chutney on the omelette. Add filling and wrap it as above. Serve hot with tomato sauce and green chutney.
