I have been thinking from many days to share some of my favourite egg recipes here, mainly because, I will forget them if I don’t write them down somewhere. I feel this is the best place to store the recipes, since this will be helpful to me and others who are interested. So this week I will share all the egg recipes which I tried in last few days.
Few days back, I was searching in google for some delicious egg recipe. This sesame egg recipe caught my attention(I am extremely sorry for not saving the original recipe link). I was surprised when I read the ingredients. Milk, sesame with egg !!!. Still, I thought let me give it a try. When I prepared this, I simply loved the taste.
Ingredients: Egg(boiled) 3 Sesame Seeds(white Til) 3 tbl spns Onion 1 Mustard seeds 1 tea spn Coriander powder 1 tea spn Garam masala 1/2 tea spn Green Chilies 4 Milk 1 cup Cumin Seeds ½ tea spn Oil 2 tbl spn Salt
Method: Grind green chillies and sesame seeds to get a smooth paste adding a little water if needed. Heat oil, add mustard and cumin seeds. When they start spluttering, add onions and fry till onions become slightly brownish. Add the sesame-chillie paste and fry for 5min. Now add milk, mix and put boiled eggs (put some slits into the egg so that the masala reaches the yellow part). Cover and let it cook for 5-6 minutes. Add salt, garam masala, coriander powder and let it cook for a while. Serve hot garnished with coriander leaves.
Serves : 2 Preparation time : 20min
I studied my Engineering from Belgaum, Karnataka. Most of the people I know (both friends and relatives) have also done their BE from the same place. It is the place where I had the chaats for the first time(except Pani Puri. My mother and grand mother are experts in pani puri and I grew up eating it). You name any chaat and Belgaum had the best of it. One thing I missed eating there was the famous omlet available at the railway station. I don’t know why it was so famous ;). All the guys knew about it. They had this omlet at 12 in the night while returning home from their studies (or taking a night walk to overcome their sleep!!!). Though I never went out and had egg chaats/omlets in roadside stalls, my brother, hubby and some of my friends very well knew about this famous egg chaat. Since I never tasted it before, I had to completely rely on my hubby’s description for this recipe. Now I can say I am a big fan of this chaat.
Ingredients: Eggs (boiled) 2 Onion 1 Tomato 1 Lemon juice 1 tbl spn Chaat masala 1/2 tea spn Chilli powder 1/2 tea spn Coriander leaves 3-4 strands Salt
Method: Finely chop onion, tomato and coriander leaves. Add chilli powder, salt, chaat masala, lemon juice and mix well. Cut the eggs into halves. Keep the mixture on the egg and serve.
Serves : 2 Preparation time : 15min (including the time to boil eggs).
