Dim Begun(Eggplant with eggs)

Eggs are wholesome and nutritious. Try them with a variety of foods to make your meal super healthy. Its said that One woman's breakfast is another's dinner. An egg omelette can become a tiffin lunch where as, the evening creme brulee can be someone else's dinner dessert. Eggs are versatile and can be used to make a thousand varieties of dishes.There's more to an egg than having them boiled, poached or fried. Eggs are not only delectable eaten on their own , but are also used in cooking as they bind ingredients together and make  for tastier snacks. Loaded with proteins, vitamins and minerals, eggs are an all time favourite. Indian cooking may not offer much variety , save for the tomato-onion omelette, bhurji or egg curry but in other cuisines it is not so.Here i m sharing a preparation that i make at home for my family.Try it .
