Eggs are universally popular and everybody's favorite. It happens to be my favorite too. A variety of dishes can be prepared with eggs. It is a perfect comfort food. You can enjoy for breakfast, brunch, lunch, snack or dinner. The choice is yours.
So I would like to share a very easy and a quick Andhra style Egg Curry, which I tried for the first time and I simply enjoyed my meal. You can leave the eggs whole if you prefer. However, I like to halve them. Both spicy and tangy, this is an absolute delicacy. You can enjoy with steamed rice, any Indian flat bread, dosa or appam.
