A Sudden Creation: Egg–squisite Vegetable Oysters

Umm...so it was about 8 am in the morning, and I needed to make something for me and my mom to eat for breakfast. I opened the fridge to find nothing I could use, except a loaf of bread, tomato ketchup and eggs. I was just thinking of making bread-omelettes, when I discovered a bowl of leftover cauliflower curry from last night. I totally hate wasting stuff, and so, I decided not to waste any of the leftover.

And voila!  There I was, with a brilliant idea swirling in my head.

I have shared the recipe below:

Egg-squisite vegetable oysters

Egg–squisite Vegetable Oysters:

Ingredients (makes two serves):

• Bread – one loaf
• Eggs – 3
• Cauliflower curry (or any other vegetable, in that case) – about half a bowl
• Tomato ketchup – 1 to 2 teaspoons
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Mustard/vegetable oil to fry

Procedure:

• Add the tomato ketchup to the vegetable curry and mix well.  Ensure that the vegetable pieces are not more than 0.5 to 1 cm long.
• Beat the eggs and add salt and pepper to taste
• Moisten the bread slices and press them against one of your palms with the fingers of the other hand, giving it a shallow bowl like structure.
• Place some vegetable curry on the slice and seal the edges by pressing them.
• Dip this into the egg mix, and squeeze the excessive egg out (It's a bit messy, but won't harm much if you're real careful.
• Deep fry till one side turns brown.  Then turn over and let the other side become brown.

Serve hot with tomato ketchup.

Try making this at home for a snack, and do post your feedback in the comments. I'll be waiting!
