Cauliflower Egg Burji Recipe | Cauliflower Egg Stir Fry

 Cauliflower Egg Burji Recipe with step by step photos. As a newly married girl when I was left alone in the kitchen initially this Cauliflower Egg Recipe came to my rescue .It is so simple and easy to prepare. It needs very minimal ingredients but tastes awesome. This recipe was passed on to me by one of my colleague and from then on it used to take a regular place in my kitchen.

Cauliflower Egg Burji goes very well with both Rice and Roti. Instead of the stove top method we can even use the baked Cauliflower version which will be similar to the cauliflower au gratin which tastes equally good. I will try to share that version soon!
