This is Hyderabadi Nashte Ka Khagina meaning Breakfast Khagina or Anda Bhurji with freshly chopped healthy Red Amaranthus or Laal Maat Bhaji as a yummy twist by me. With this amazing Leafy Vegetable, I had given it an interesting twist for a change on a weekend Morning for Breakfast and Picnic. With this yummy variation as a lovely Tiffin for a family picnic or a Potluck, it was a complete novice meal. The best part is that it can be whipped up in just a few minutes and suits the busy morning hour rush and hence comes as a boon to all the mothers and especially the working mothers on the week days. This is similar to Scrambled Eggs which is an all time favourite dish of many a people around the World. This is infact Desi style of Scrambled Eggs that's so very easy to whip up on any given day. Enjoy your meals with this super easy dish. Not only for Breakfast, this can be enjoyed with Phulkas at Lunch and Dinner both.
Red Amaranthus add that flavour as well as a beautiful colour or lustre to the dish. And the taste and texture was just amazing. A perfect Breakfast idea on any day especially the Weekends for all. A great option for Lunchbox too.
That's it. Let's get started right away.

Enjoy Cooking with Zeen!

Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.
