    its very Delicious one. N i felt it’s one among the best south Indian dish. i suggest every one to try this atleast once.

  4. My husband just loves dish made ouot of eggs…
    And this is one of his favs

    My version:
    After adding the tomatos in the above recipe.. cook for 2 mins.. cool the mixture and grind it… then again fry it till the oil seperates.. This stops the dish from leaving water at the edges..

    BTW are u a manglorean?

    In all egg and non-veg dishes I like to add a little haldi (turmeric) powder. In the above recipe I would add 1/2 tsp haldi powder.
    Otherwise we make this at home quite regularly. Its an absolute fantastic egg curry to make.
