Though I do not have his book with me, I have been doing this egg rice for years. The only reason is it can be made in no time and one healthy pot of meal. This egg rice is very simple and perfect to make in the morning rush and pack for lunch. Try it and enjoy it guys…

Method

Cook the rice and keep it separately, see to that the rice is not sticky.

Heat oil in a kadai, temper the cumin seeds. 

Now add the onions, green chillies, curry leaves and sauté until golden brown.

Add the ginger & garlic paste and sauté until the raw smell vanishes.

Now break open the eggs to the kadai, add turmeric powder, salt and sauté the eggs and cook until well done. [Make sure the eggs are not in big chunks]

Switch off the stove, add the cooked rice, lemon juice, coriander leaves and toss around really well until the egg is evenly spread in the rice.
