To me egg is the most ultimate comfort food.There are so many variations to its preparation.Toasts with egg is a hot favorite for breakfast in so many households and eateries.Here is a nice spicy version of the eggs roasted with spices a great option for a later meal.Addition of mint instantly adds fantastic aroma and flavor to this egg roast.Makes for a nice dish by itself or served as a side with rice or breads.Egg is a good source of protein and vitamins like B12 but is also a source of cholesterol,if you love eggs too much then just discard the yolk or consider eating it in moderation.This recipe was featured at Honestcooking.
