EGG CURRY

Egg curry has so many versions all around India. southern style is always been my favorite coz I am from Bangalore. I will be really happy to cook with eggs because not just  it tastes good also that every body loves it. I always have it in my fridge coz I know even though I run out of fresh veggies this is something I always have & can make really anything in no time.

Eggs are really good protein & its always good to have them for breakfast, since its heavy protein it helps you to be strong all day & to digest it, having them in morning helps the process better. There is this Hindi ad that says SUNDAY HO YA MONDAY ROZ KHAU ANDE!!!. really true its that good for you. I have N number of ways to eat eggs for breakfast & one of them is definitely with chapattis. My kids love it & carry it for school too.
