 Your teenage son or husband comes home famished , and you have just one or two eggs which won't satisfy their hunger, then make them egg bhurji. I have never had egg bhurji before but have heard about this from my brother. I found this recipe in get curried . The videos are short and precise.

5. 1 tsp chopped ginger
6. 2 eggs

8. 1/4 tsp turmeric
9. 1 tsp Kashmiri chili powder
10. 1 tsp fancy garam masala
11. salt to taste

• Chop the onions.
  

• Heat a non-sticky pan  on medium high heat, when warm add 2 Tbsp oil, when the oil is hot add the chopped onions.

NOTES

• Salting:Salt the eggs and onion-tomato mixture only as required. Obce the salt is too much , nothing can be done. If its less , more can be added.
• The above mixture fills three sets of burger buns.
• The onions and tomatoes can be chopped finely using a chopper. I use a vidalia chopper for that.
