Egg Bhurji Recipe

We love egg bhurji in our home, it is so flavorful and so filling. I have already posted a simple scrambled egg recipe, this one has more masala, more spice and is more tasty. 

We make this as a side dish for roti or for bread sandwich. Egg bhurji is the non vegetarian version of paneer bhurji. Both tastes awesome and is very famous all over India.
