Quail Fried Eggs

Did you know Quail eggs are more nutritious and healthy than the regular chicken eggs we get in the market? These little quail eggs have more protein, vitamins and iron compared to the chicken eggs. They also fight allergies, stomach ulcers, promotes memory power and many more! With all the bad things people say about the chicken eggs, quail eggs are a wonderful option to consider.

These quail eggs are very tiny compared to the chicken eggs. To make one normal sized fried eggs, you will have to use atleast 4-5 quail eggs.

Egg Chapathi | Egg Chapathi Roll

Egg Recipes, Lunch Box Recipes, Rotis and Parathas 4 comments

My kids like to take chapathi to school but they want to eat the chapathi only with curd. They don't like eating it with any veggies. This recipe is an easy way to make their lunch more healthy. The addition of eggs makes it protein rich and it makes the chapathi tasty too. You can add some vegetable stuffing in the middle and roll it up too. But my kids don't like it that way so I simply cut this up and pack it with curd.

I don't like repeating lunch box menus for atleast 2-3 weeks to keep things interesting and especially to keep my kids interested in the lunch box! So I end up making different kinds of variety rice.
One such day I made this cabbage egg rice. I usually make cabbage egg poriyal as a side dish for rice, I simply added some rice to the poriyal and made this for my kids lunch box.
You can add some peanuts for crunch.

Mutta Bonda

Bonda Recipe, Egg Recipes, Snacks 1 comment

Mutta Bonda is a favorite tea time snack among South Indians. It is easy and simple to make, if you already have boiled eggs at hand. Few months back we visited my friend Poongodi, where she quickly made some yummy muttai bonda. Our family enjoyed the muttai bonda and we enjoyed the time spent with them! After that day my husband kept saying we must make these egg bondas at home and finally we ended up making it at home and it tasted great! My husband helped me make these bondas and we enjoyed our evening snacks with kids!

Now a days, we get ready made bhajji/bonda mix in the store but making this egg bonda from scratch at home is extremely simple and will not require you to buy the mix from the store.

Breakfast Recipes, Dosa variety, Egg Recipes, Healthy Recipes, Sathumavu No comments

Sathumaavu is a powder made with lots of nuts and grains for young children. You can read all about it in this post on homemade sathumaavu powder.

I normally make sathumaavu kanji for them but they are not fond of eating it, I have to force feed the kanji. So I try to include the powder in other ways too. I make this sathumaavu dosa, which works out very well, I also make this egg dosa for my husband. This makes the breakfast very filling and healthy.

Fried Eggs Recipe

Breakfast Recipes, Egg Recipes No comments

This is the most common eggs that I make at home, so much so, that I've bought a special small pan just to make this egg!! All of us love to have this for breakfast, it is easy to make and if made correctly, tastes really good.
Cooking the eggs to the correct consistency is important. Over cooking will make it rubbery.

Mudakathan Keerai Muttai Dosai

Breakfast Recipes, Dosa variety, Egg Recipes, Mudakathan Keerai 1 comment

Mudakathan keerai muttai dosai is just like the normal muttai dosai. It is healthy and tastes no different than the normal dosai, if not much better, except for the color. I make mudakathan keerai dosai atleast once a week since I have this keerai growing wildly in my little kitchen garden.

I have already posted a Mudakathan Keerai Dosai recipe. This keerai is very healthy just like all the other keerai/greens variety. Mudakathan keerai is called as Balloon Vine Leaves in English. It has anti inflammatory properties and it's rich in anti oxidants too. You can make a stir fry with this keerai too but I find this the easiest way to make my kids eat the keerai. Adding an egg to it makes it even more healthy and makes it a wonderful option for breakfast.

Egg Pepper Roast

Egg Recipes 3 comments

I have a habit of buying fresh vegetables everyday. We are blessed to have a good vegetable vendor closeby who stocks fresh veggies everyday so I never buy in bulk and load the fridge. The down side of this is when there is an emergency! When there were some untoward news about our chief minister and the entire city shut down in a matter of hours, I was stuck with no veggies to cook!!

However, eggs are so versatile in nature, it always comes in handy when everything else fails. So on this particular day when I was stuck not having any vegetables to cook I made this pepper egg roast and kuthiraivali moong dal khichidi and it was one of the tastiest meals ever!! Simple and easy!

Masala Bread Toast | Savoury French Toast

Bread Recipes, Breakfast Recipes, Egg Recipes, Snacks 2 comments

This is a quick and easy breakfast/snack recipe that I make for my husband since he's not fond of the regular french toast. He prefers savoury to sweet so this is the bread toast version for him along with the baked egg toast.
Sometimes I add finely chopped veggies to the mix, change the masalas and make it more tasty and different each time. Adding masalas to the egg mixture always masks the smell of eggs.

Baked Egg Toast

Bread Recipes, Breakfast Recipes, Egg Recipes, Kids Special 4 comments

My city has been hit by heavy rains the past month leading to floods and massive destruction. Schools have been closed for nearly a month. There's been so much of loss and so many of my friend's houses have been submerged in water. It's really heart wrenching to see so many people who have lost everything that they had. Our heartfelt thoughts and prayers to all those affected in this rain.

Coming to today's recipe, this is a different way to serve eggs to your family. Baked egg toast is as delicious as any other forms of eggs that we have for breakfast. This is a healthy wholesome food that kids will love!
This recipe can be adjusted to your liking. I like my eggs to be fully cooked while my husband likes half cooked, runny eggs so if you're like me, then bake these for a little longer otherwise go by the timings mentioned.

Egg Recipes, Left Over Recipes, Lunch Box Recipes, Mushroom Recipes, Rice 7 comments

This rice has become one of the most favorite rice recipes for us! We love mushrooms and we love eggs and this makes an awesome combination This rice is so flavorful and delicious and you can have it with minimal accompaniments, a simple raita and chips is more than enough.

You can make this rice on a lazy day and this is amazing to pack for lunch boxes too. When I was making the mushroom and egg bhurji, I had an idea to make a rice out of it and it turned out fabulously! This is just like the masala egg rice but with the addition of mushrooms! This is also similar to a mushroom and egg fried rice but without the 'fancy' additions that goes with making a Chinese style fried rice.

I make egg bhurji often as a side dish, it's very simple to make and tastes great too. So I was wondering how adding mushrooms to it will taste so to test it out made mushroom egg bhurji and like I had imagined, it made the dish even more delectable! From then on this has been a regular dish in my house. I almost always have mushrooms in my fridge and I make this as a side dish for rotis or even dosa and it also makes an awesome filling for sandwiches. Totally yum!
