As I said I might, if it went over well with my family (which it did), I am posting my version of a recipe for Indian scrambled eggs here today.

So far, we've had this over basmati rice and in fajita shells (as a substitute for roti), and I much prefer the former. I'm keeping an eye out for the Indian flatbread.

Be sure to visit the second link above to learn more about the breakfast curries of colonial India in general. For the particular recipe I based mine on, go here. The author goes into more detail, and discusses some interesting variants.

Enjoy!
