Eggs, Eggs, Eggs, what a lovely stuff it is..It is like a universal thing. You make anything with it, it taste heavenly. It can become like a main coarse or a sidedish to any meal in no time. I love my eggs, each time i try to make different things with eggs. This is one of the recipe which looks like a normal scrambled eggs, but i added a coconut masala to it and made it so special.
