tips

  • Always add coriander leaves at the end because coriander leaves taste different when added in the middle of the process of cooking versus when it is added at the end. To retain the fresh flavor of the coriander leaves in your meal, prefer adding them at the end.
    Always break the egg in a small bowl first and then add it to the bigger one. This is because if you will break all eggs in one big bowl and by any chance one of your egg turns out to be a bad one, then your entire bowl of eggs will get spoil.
    Also, whisking the eggs separately in the bowl before adding in the pan makes sure the eggs scramble perfectly.
    You can cook the egg bhurji to the consistency you like. Well-cooked is better.
