Cooking tasty food is possible
without being a Master Chef! So I decided to write down the recipes for all
those people who like hassle free cooking, but still care about the taste.
P.S.: All the following recipes serve
1 person only!
Ingredients:
- 3 eggs
- ½ spoon butter/ghee/oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- Beat the 3 eggs in a bowl. Add 3 pinches of salt & pepper each.
- Put the butter/ghee/oil in the hot plate/hot pan (or whichever substitute that you have)
- Add the beaten eggs to the pan & keep mixing them with a spatula (or spoon). Break it as much as you want to.
- To give an Italian taste to your scrambled eggs, add 1 spoon of red chilli flakes & oregano each (which you could pick up at your next visit to Domino’s or buy it from a store)
- Serve with bread/chappati.
Ingredients:
Italian Oats
Tired of eating the regular oat flavors? Try something new!
(Pick up a few packs of red chili flakes & oregano from Domino’s or you can buy them from a store!)
- 2 eggs
- ½ spoon butter/ghee/oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- Put water (till the max level) in your pan (can also be made in a kettle). Let it boil for 5 minutes.
- Put a steel bowl on the boiling water.
- Put the butter/ghee/oil in the bowl.
- Allow it to heat for 1 minute
- Then break the eggs directly on the bowl. Add 2 pinches of salt & pepper each.
- You can take a break, finish assignments or listen to some music while your eggs cook.
- After about 10-15 minutes they will stop being runny & then turn off the heat & (VERY) carefully take the bowl out.
- You could use a spoon to scoop your eggs out of the bowl.
- Serve with bread/chappati.
