I like any egg dish. This is one of the easy dishes from my Pachi (Mom’s sister is called pachi in Konkani). She prepares this in those innumerable dinner parties at their home. A delicious dish with minimum work.
Usually this can be served with chapathi or roti or rice.
Ingredients: 5 eggs 1/2 cup onion 3-4 green chillies 1/2 tea spn pepper powder 4-5 strands coriander leaves Oil/ ghee Salt as per taste
Method: Heat oil or ghee , add green chillies(slit into halves) and finely chopped onion. Fry till onions turn slightly brownish. Add half the coriander leaves and a little salt. Spread out the onions so that it covers the full pan. Break eggs and add on the onions. (There should be a thick layer of eggs on the onion layer). Sprinkle coriander leaves, pepper powder and salt. Cook covered until eggs are completely cooked. Cut into pieces and serve hot.
Serves : 2-3 Preparation time : 15min
This is a traditional recipe. I got it from my cousin Usha. These days we share a lot of recipes while chatting. She has got tremendous interest in cooking.I am getting a feel that here in US there are lot of people like me who love cooking. When I was in Bangalore, my colleagues hardly used to get any time for cooking. It may be because there the working hours(I mean working and traveling hours!!) were usually morning 8 to evening 8 and sometimes people used to work even after that.
So when last time Usha said she had invited a family for lunch and she prepared around 8-10 dishes, I was very surprised. Even I love doing that, but hardly got any such opportunities. In Bangalore I was too busy and used to feel exhausted due to heavy work and here, there is nobody whom we can invite. We know very few people here.
