When I want to cook something really quick, I turn to my easy breezy egg recipes. Here is one such, where I saute tomatoes, onions and occasional bell pepper; add the egg and cooked rice and voila! Our meal is ready.
National Egg Coordination Committee; A committee in India which started to make sure poultry farmers got their fair share of profits, also promoted the incredible egg.
Their jingle:
"Meri jaan meri jaan murgi ke ande....
Sunday khao Monday khao roj khayo Ande"
(Translated it means: just eat those eggs already)
made me crave for sunny side up eggs when I was a kid.
