Egg-eatarian: Omelet Curry

Quite a lot of people say they are veggies, but still eat eggs. My message to all of them, EGGS ARE NON-VEG! If you ha not eaten them, they would have produced nice little chicks (which would also be eaten anyway). Do not tell me that eggs-are-a-product thing. They are non-veg and you know it.

Having said that, here is a nice recipe that I have learnt from my mother. Many Bengali household has this as a dish, not often though. I would name this as 'Omelet Curry'.

Ingredients:
  • Eggs: 4

  • Onions: 2 large, one finely chopped, another sliced.

  • Green Chillies: 3 finely chopped

  • Cummin seeds: 1/2 teaspoon

  • Dry Red Chilli: 1

  • Bay Leaves: 3

  • Coriandar Powder: 1 tablespoon, soaked in little water

  • Turmeric powder: 1/2 teaspoon, soaked with coriander powder

  • Ginger Garlic paste: 1 teaspoon

  • 2 Capsicums: 1, medium sliced
  • 2 Tomatoes: chopped

  • Oil: 4 tablespoon

  • Water: 2 cups

  • Salt: to taste

Procedure:
  • Beat one egg at a time. Add some salt, few chopped onions and green chilli. Fry with 1 teaspoon oil. When one side is half done, fold like a roll.

  • Cut each omelet into four pieces. Try not to eat them.

  • Put the remaining oil on heat. Add cummin seeds, red chilli and bay leaves. Fry till done.

  • Add the remaining green chillies and sliced onions.

  • Fry till onions are golden, then add the ginger garlic paste.

  • Fry till the raw smell goes.

  • Add the sliced capsicums and fry them, add some salt to speed up the process.

  • Add the turmeric and coriander paste. Fry till the water vanishes and nice smell of fried corriander comes.
  • Add the tomatoes and fry.

  • Now, add the water and let boil.

  • Gently lower in the omelet pieces into the boiling gravy and boil for sometime.

  • The curry is ready.
