Egg Omlette Pepper Curry

              One Sunday, chinnu was busy reading the newspaper supplement. Alright…a 10 month old won’t READ newspapers…she was busy tearing it. I saw this simple recipe while trying to save the paper from her. Made it the next day with slight changes and it tasted so good, I have started making it often nowadays.
