Description

super easy, quick Anda Bhurji (spicy Indian scrambled eggs) breakfast recipe – perfect for a student in West Bengal/PG/hostel life. Takes 10 mins max, cheap af, and fills you up properly 🔥 No fancy stuff needed, just basic eggs + mess kitchen vibes.

Ingredients

• Stuff you need:
• Eggs – 3-4 (the more, the merrier)
• 1 small onion (finely chopped)
• 1 tomato (chopped, optional but nice)
• 1-2 green chillies (slit or chopped – adjust spice level bro)
• 2-3 garlic cloves (crushed or chopped, skip if lazy)
• Handful coriander leaves (chopped, optional flex)
• ½ tsp jeera (cumin seeds) or just skip
• ½ tsp haldi (turmeric)
• ½-1 tsp red chilli powder
• Salt to taste
• Black pepper pinch (optional)
• Oil or butter – 1-2 tbsp
• Bread slices / roti / paratha to eat with (or just solo like a boss)

Method

1. Kadhai ya tawa garam karo, medium flame pe.
2. Oil/butter daalo → jeera daal ke crackle hone do (10 sec).
3. Onion + green chilli daalo → golden hone tak fry karo (2 mins, jaldi karo subah mein time nahi hota 😭).
4. Garlic daalo (if using) → 30 sec fry.
5. Tomato daalo → thoda soft hone do (1 min).
6. Ab masale: haldi + red chilli powder + salt daal ke mix karo.
7. 20-30 sec bhuno taaki raw smell gayab ho.
8. Eggs tod ke seedha kadhai mein daal do.
9. Turant spoon se scramble karte jao – low-medium flame pe rakho warna dry ho jayega.
10. Jab eggs almost set ho jaye (soft rakhna best lagta hai), coriander daal ke mix kar lo.
11. Taste check – zyada namak lage to thoda sugar daal dena (hack for balance).
12. Flame band karo, plate mein nikaal lo.
13. Garam garam bread toast ke saath ya roti fold karke kha lo. Chai ke saath peak Bengali breakfast feel aa jayega!
14. Pro tips from broke student life:
15. Mess mein sirf egg + onion mila to bhi chalega, bilkul basic version banta hai.
16. Extra hungry? Bread pe butter laga ke upar anda daal ke sandwich bana lo.
17. Kal raat ka bacha hua anda use kar sakte ho (fridge mein rakh ke).
18. Veg version chahiye? Just skip eggs, paneer crumble daal ke kar lo.
19. Bhookh lagi na ab? Jaldi try kar aur bata kaisa bana! 😄
20. Aur agar aloo paratha ya poha chahiye next time bol dena 🔥
