Who doesn’t know egg burji? It is the easiest dish anybody can make. But this one is a little different. Not the normal egg burgi. Thanks to Kundutayi for this one.
Ingredients: Eggs(Boiled) 4-5 Onion 2 Green chillis 4 Turmeric A pinch Coriander leaves 3-4 strands Oil or ghee 1 tea spn Chicken masala or garam masala 1 tea spn Curry leaves 5-6 Mustard seeds 1/4 tea spn Salt
Method: Cut the eggs into small pieces. Heat oil/ghee & add mustard seeds. When they start spluttering, add curry leaves and green chillis. Add finely chopped onion & fry till they turn brownish. Then add egg pieces, salt, turmeric, chicken masala(or garam masala). Cook for 5minutes. Garnish with coriander leaves. Serve hot with chapathi or rice.

This is again my mom’s recipe. But my anna(brother) did some modifications to it. He used to add garlic which gives more taste. He is a very good cook. He has a lot of interest in cooking & keeps trying some new dishes. Normally though cooking is taken as only girl’s job, my pappa(father – he is a doctor) & brother(he is an s/w engineer) are two very good male cooks I have ever seen. When I was a kid, if my mom went somewhere, my father used to cook very delicious things for me(I was very lazy child, I never used to enter the kitchen). When I grew up, i got interest in cooking. For three years, after coming to Bangalore, I experimented new things on my brother :). Even he used to cook for me whenever I used to go home late from work.
