Super Fast Egg Bhurji (Dry Egg Dish)

This Egg bhurji is another super fast recipe that I tried this week. It takes just 10-15mins for preparing it for 2-3 people. Its one of my time saving favorites now and guess what, hubby is not very keen of dry recipes (those without gravy) but he liked this one very much. It can be made as a replacement to a dry vegetable to have with chapatis or it can be used as a quick delicious side dish to almost any main course recipe. It can also be used as an appetizer during morning breakfast or evening snacks - in fact, anytime :)
So, without wasting further of your precious time, here goes the recipe:

Ingredients:

  • Eggs - 3
  • Onion - 1 medium
  • Tomato - 1 medium
  • Salt - to taste
  • Oil - 2 tbsp
  • Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Cumin powder - 1/4 tsp
  • Turmeric - 1/4 tsp 
  • Coriander leaves - cleaned and cut into small pieces - 1 tsp
  • Green chilli - 1

Method:

  • Cut onion, tomato into small pieces
  • Cut green chilli into fine pieces
  • In a thick bottom container, heat oil
  • When oil heats up, add the tomato and onion and saute till the onion turns translucent
  • At this point, add the spices,chilli and salt
  • Now, break the eggs and pour the content in the container
  • Mix the egg well with quick and swift movements of the spatula with rest of the ingredients. After a minute or so, the recipe would look like this:
                         

  • Stir for a minute or so, you need to take care that the eggs are neither sticky and watery nor do they dry up completely. When this consistency is reached (2-3 minutes after pouring the eggs in the container), turn off the flame
  • Add cut coriander leaves to this and your dry egg recipe is ready. Serve it hot with any main course, tea, or you can have it all on its own as well.
