Bite-size pieces of Omelette when added to a creamy and rich coconut gravy, turned into an incredibly delicious dish…
I’d thought why would someone slice a nice looking omelette into bite-size pieces and turn into a curry??? Now, I know the reason: because it tastes delicious. If you are tired of having omelette and looking for a way to make exciting dishes with egg, you gotta try this one.
Trying this dish had been in my to-do list for so long, finally prepared it yesterday and felt so glad that I made it. This dish tasted extremely delicious. Even, my Man loved it to the core as it tasted more like a meat dish.
I made a creamy and rich gravy with coconut milk, added the omelette pieces to it, and cooked for a few minutes. An absolutely delicious dish with omelette.
