EGG BHURJI- MUMBAIYYA STYLE !!!!!!


I adapted this recipe from NDTV COOKS. I tried this recipe especially for my son who is a great fan of capsium, I made slight changes in recipe according to our taste (i will mention them in recipe) & it tasted great.

Ingredients

4 eggs 
2 onions, finely chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped 
3 green chilies or as per taste, finely chopped 
1 capsicum, chopped 
2 inch ginger, finely chopped (here i added 2 tsp ginger-garlic paste)
1/2 cup coriander leaves 
3 to 4 curry leaves 
2 Tbsp vegetable oil or ghee(here i used coconut oil)
1 tsp jeera 
1 tsp red chilli powder (here i used only 1/2 tsp)
1 tsp turmeric powder (here i used only 1/2tsp)
Pav bhaji masala (as per taste) (i used 1/2 tsp)
Pinch of hing 
Salt as per taste 
2 Tbsp butter (optional)(here i used only 1 tbsp)


Method:-

1. Whisk the four eggs gently with a spoon and keep aside. 
2. Take a pan, add oil or ghee to it. Now add jeera, onions, hing, green chillies, curry leaves, capsicum and ginger to it. Saute. 
3. Add tomatoes and few coriander leaves. Saute for 2 minutes. 
4. Add 1 Tbsp butter, pav bhaji masala, red chilli powder, tumeric powder and salt as per taste. 
5. Lastly add slightly beaten eggs and keep whisking them until cooked.
6. Top it up with butter.( optional) ( i didn't used). Garnish with the rest of coriander leaves.
7. Serve hot with buttered pav/butterd bun/chapathi/rice.




HAPPY COOKING :)))))))))

and here's an tip:-

1. For extra taste apply green chutney/garlic chutney on one side of pav/bun & sprinkle egg bhurji on it & close the pav/bun & eat it. My son ate it in this way & liked it a lot.
2. People who don't egg, can try this with paneer bhurji.
