How to make egg bhurji sandwich recipe
1. Heat a tawa and place the bread slices and toast them on a low heat till they turn crusty. While the bread gets done, grate the ginger and other veggies.Break the eggs to a bowl.
2. Set aside the bread and add oil to the tawa. Add cumin, when they splutter, add grated ginger and chopped green chilies.
3. When you smell the ginger good, pour the eggs.
4. Gently scramble them and cook on a medium heat. Scrambling vigorously will make the egg bhurji hard.
5. Add chilli powder, turmeric, salt and pepper powder or garam masala powder.
6. Mix everything well.
7. When the eggs are soft cooked, transfer the eggs to the bread. Place the onions if using.
8. Layer the veggies and leafy greens whatever you choose.
9. Cover the filling with another slice of bread. Gently press down with the wooden spoon.
Serve right away after you make, else the juice from veggies will make the bread soggy.
