Egg Capsicum Burji

Should a recipe for Egg Burji be posted is what I first thought ! But why not, after all its also yet another dish. Egg Burji is a usual quick side dish that can be made any time during the day. Some additional ingredients than the usual onion Egg Burji would make a difference. This change is what I learnt from M. Here in Germany we get the Green, Red and Golden or Orange Capsicum packed together helps me give colours to my recipe.

A little about Capsi : When you buy capsicum you got to buy a bright looking one wich is firm and unwrinkled. Its also called as Paprika or Cayenne/Bell pepper. Red ones are high in Vitamin A and C than the green one. They are free of fat and One Red capsicum contains 2 teaspoons of natural sugar therefore they taste better than the green ones.

Now lets see the recipe :

Ingredients :

Eggs : 4 Nos.

Onions : 1 No.

Capsicum : Half of one big

Green Chillies : 4 Nos.

Curry leaves : 1 strand
