Anda Bharta !!

The simplest yet kinda interesting side dish when you are looking for some quick fix dinner ..
As the name suggests its mashed boiled eggs ..

But you could glamorize it a bit and add some zing and zest to it ..
All Stuff In - Waiting to be mashed !!


  • Boil two eggs .. (I prefer them soft boiled rather than hard boiled since I like to see the yolk still moist and yellow)
  • Finely .. In fact very finely chop up some onions, green chillies, tomato, a few sprigs of coriander and a couple of mint leaves ..
  • Add some freshly crushed pepper ..
  • A pinch of chaat masala
  • Red chilli powder ..
  • A squeeze of lime ..
  • A pinch of powdered sugar and salt to taste ..
  • Last but important ingredient - pour in a tablespoon of mustard oil
    • Olive oil or even vegetable oil will do, but mustard oil gives it a character which the other two may not be able to .. :-)

Now mash all the above ingredients together into a nice bharta .. and you are done !!!

This could go really well with some hot white rice and dal-fry , or even some chappati and dal-fry ..
