Last X'mas Sree and I went to my friend Vinee's house for lunch. She had made several items and everything was just yummmmmmmm. One of the dishes was an egg curry, which my Sree likeda lot. After that he told many times to get the recipe. Day before yesterday Vinee sent me that. I am giving you that recipe with slight modifications.
