Egg roast


This is an easy and tasty dish. It can be prepared in variety of ways and adding your favorite masalas and ingredients. Here I have made it very simple. A very quick curry to make when you are in a hurry .This is a non gravy dish and is made dry . If you want to make egg curry, then its with gravy which is also tasty and easy.
My mothers egg curry was something I used to wait for as she makes it during weekends . Now after marriage I learned that my hubby prepares real good egg curry, so I do not interfere and spoil that dish. He has some secrets though but I have not tried to learn that as I just want to enjoy the yummy treat which comes once in a while. So here am giving just the Egg roast recipe . We all know Egg yolks are rich in cholesterol, but now they say it is good for speeding up metabolism when had as breakfast item and helps burn belly fat...........the choice is yours though !!!!
