tomato rings filled with scrambled eggs (breakfast treat)
Breakfast celebrates each morning as we break the overnight fasting — hence the term. I enjoy breakfast. It’s not something I have ever skipped unless I have to fast for medical reasons. I was always taught the best meal of the day is breakfast. TweetFacebookLinkedInTumblrStumbleDiggDelicious
Read Morebaked paratha omelette
One of the areas I get food inspiration from is social media. The other day there was an IG story (very short clip) where this guy used paratha instead of puff pastry to make an Asian omelette. I love South Asian food and it seems forever since we’ve had any. For those not familiar with…
