So all egg lovers will simply love this comfort dish that can be had anytime of the day. Anda Ghotala is a very flavorful dish which is spicy and very quick to dish out. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.
Anda Ghotala is basically a combination of eggs that are added to it in various forms. Egg bhurji (or scrambled eggs), boiled & grated eggs and a sunny side up omelet goes into preparing this wonderful dish.
Anda refers to eggs and ghotola means a mess or a scam. So it is a messy affair of all types of eggs that goes into preparing this protein rich recipe. However, I skipped the scrambled eggs as I felt that too much protein intake at one go would not be palatable for me.
Another interesting fact about this dish is that pav bhaji masala is added besides other dry spices for some nice flavour.
Typically, Anda Ghotala is relished with pav or bread. However, you may also enjoy with chapatti, paratha or rice.
