To make the Egg Bhurji
  1. Take a large flat bottomed pan. Add the cumin seeds, let it brown. Add the onion and jalapeno or green chilies. Saute well for about two minutes or until the onions get soft. Then add the yogurt mix. Saute this mix very very well on low to medium heat. This will take about 5-7 minutes. You will see the oil oozing out of the paste. When that happens, add the bell peppers, saute for a minute. Cover and let it cook on medium heat for about 2 minutes. Check after two minutes, add ⅓ cup of water, cover and again cook for about 3-5 minutes or until the peppers get soft. Add garam masala.
  2. Push the peppers mixture to one side. Pour in the eggs, sprinkle some salt, mix and scramble well. Keep scrambling until all the eggs are cooked. Cook it as much as you like it. Mix the peppers to the eggs and mix well.
  3. Garnish with cilantro.
