| Egg Masala Curry |
Egg masala curry is an all-time favourite dish in my family. It is the most comforting food which does not take too much time to prepare.T though I call it egg masala, yet not spicy as I use a few whole spices which make it flavoursome n aromatic. People who do not eat non-vegetarian food but eggs, like this dish a lot
This curry can be enjoyed with roti or rice but I serve this with spinach-bread which I often bake at home. Everyone likes this combo in my family. I specially bake a spinach bread whenever I plan to cook egg masala
