Last week was one crazy, busy and fun week! Our friends were here from NJ and the whole week was all about parties, delicious food and too many late nights 🙂 The weather was however, not too supportive. It was raining the whole week, bad storm and chilly winds. It made me wonder that if the winter was back again? Anyways, the weather forecast for this week looks good and may be, the rain will finally stop.
I have a lot of catching up to do in the blogging world. I have missed a lot of recipes in the last week and a half. I was hardly getting any time to go online! There was a lot of interesting cooking happening in my kitchen and I can't wait to share it with you guys. Talking about today's recipe, this is more of a typical Indian dish and my Mom used to make egg curry a lot.
This is one of my favorite egg curry - easy to cook, absolutely tasty and goes well with either rice or parathas or just plain phulkas. If potato is one of my favorite vegetable, then egg would be one of my favorite protein. I think I am eggaholic 😛 Give me an egg in any form and I will love it.. I never get tired of them, even if I have to eat them back to back for days. I know when you think of egg, you think of breakfast. But the best part about eggs is that it can be an appetizer or main course or even desert!
