It’s a bit of a ‘rush-hour’ for me to get ‘dabba’* ready for my better half early morning. It’s not about the cooking but more about finishing my run, stretching and cooling down without constantly thinking of lunch ideas, instead of enjoying the cool n fresh air early morning.
I really wish I had some more time on my hands, he is off to work by 7.15 am every morning which leaves me with very very little time to make anything elaborate.
Blessed to have married a very supportive husband, I get a break from my cooking on heavy workout days which are Tuesdays and Wednesdays; making it a wee bit easy for me to plan for the remaining three days.
Planning usually means getting as much as possible done the previous night – kneading the dough, washing n chopping the veggie etc.
One of the dishes that I prepared without an elaborate process and turned out to be a big hit was a simple boiled egg bhurji, usually I refrain from giving anything non vegetarian for lunch (as its heavy to digest and makes him a bit drowsy), egg is ok only once in a while.
Boiling the eggs previous night reduces the cooking time to barely 5 minutes, here’s the recipe.
