As we all know, Egg is a good source of Protein. We make a quick breakfast with bread and Egg Omelette without even knowing the health benefits of Egg. But, we can make numerous tasty dishes with Eggs. We will see how to make a tasty Egg roast

I served this Egg Roast with Rasam Rice.

If you want to serve with mild Pulav or Nan or Roti, you can make it as gravy by adding little more water and not making it as a dry dish.
