Egg chilli or chilli egg is a fun dish to make. These eggs are super flavorful; they’re covered in spices and fried in oil. The frying process makes them crispy and strengthens the flavors of the spices which makes for a bold and intense eating experience. You can eat these as standalone snack or appetizer; they can also serve as a part of a complete meal if you pair them with Basmati rice or roti.
Packing this for lunch? Make sure you carry it in an insulated lunchkit or storage container.
