Author Notes

If I like something that my husband cooks it is this Egg Bhurji. Back in India I was only used to eating eggs outside my house. You need to know how I started eating eggs. I have a story behind it. My husband really prepares this dish very well. Every weekend breakfast is prepared by my husband. Although, I have to assist him lot of times or else kitchen would be all messed up. Often times, we make it for dinner also as it is quick and it fills your stomach. —Devangi Raval

  2. Once the onions turn translucent add the tomatoes and cook it well.
  3. As soon as the tomatoes are done , it should take 2 minutes to cook down this mixture add the spices. And, mix well.
  4. And, immediately add all the eggs in to it. Let the eggs cook for a minute or so and just when they look they holding up then scramble them thoroughly.
  5. And, then with the help of a potato masher start mashing up the eggs so that they will get crumbly.
  6. As soon as they look cooked and well mixed up . Remove and serve them with some toast and ketchup on side . See I told you we also like ketchup the way chef Nico likes. This bhurji makes lovely sandwiches from leftover.
