Dim Kosha
The thing is, I've ran out of steam to write introductions. And I have too many things that I have cooked in the last few days but haven't updated. So I'm keeping it frill-free this time and jumping straight to the recipe.
It's a simple enough dry egg curry or kosha dim that you and I would love for lunch or dinner. I also know of people who have ruti and dim for breakfast and head to office. It takes 10 minutes to make and the spices involved are all readily available at home. Fuss-free, plain, simple and delicious!
