Ain’t life too short to eat the same meal, every day, ladies? As much as we crave for newer perspectives every day, the same applies to my cooking and the time that I spend in my kitchen – it deserves innovation and experimentation.

And when it comes to that, I have been able to make as many eclectic dishes made using egg like Egg Dosa , Egg Curry Masala , Chettinad Egg Curry , Mughlai Egg Korma , however, the thought of making eggs in Parsi Style always had my fascination.

Despite having made Lagan Ni Machli, Fox Tail Millet Berry Pilaf which are very much part of the Parsi cuisine, my culinary adventure was incomplete till I tried my hands of Akuri!

Next time you run out of ideas for a quick breakfast or a salubrious supper, make up Akuri without any deliberation.

Parsi Style Scrambled Eggs if you would like to call it, Akuri is served with bread rather pav, however, it can be even enjoyed as it is. A major chunk of its flavours is derived from onions, garlic, chilli and fresh coriander.

The minute you eat Akuri, you would realize that the eggs are never ever overcooked while making it. After all the beauty of any dish lies in the balance of all the ingredients, right?

A fine mix of spice, succulent eggs and crunch of fresh onions, garlic, chilli and coriander make Akuri an ideal breakfast option that saves your day and it can also be served for a light dinner or brunch.
