Egg Bhurji

Eggs are one of the superfoods. Eggs are essential in the diet. They are rich in protein and HDL also called good cholesterol. They are easy to cook and a great alternative to mess food. Egg

Bhurji is a classic and doesn’t need a large number of ingredients. It is well paired with pav, buns and, rotis and can be eaten as it is. It has been one of my go-to recipes when I have food cravings in midnights or want a light breakfast.
