Egg Burji – Indian style scrambled eggs

I have grown up eating roti (Indian flat bread) in breakfast almost every day for good 20 years of my life. Choosing a different side dish to go with roti was always been a challenge to my mom at that time. Of many recipes my mom use to make as side dish to go with roti, this Egg Burji or Anda Burji or as we call it Anday ki Bhurji is my very favorite.

Egg Burji is simple to make recipe with minimal handy ingredients. I have learnt few other variations of this recipe after marriage, which I will share in coming posts…but till then make and enjoy this delicious Indian style scrambled eggs.
