This was something no one ever told me,this dish was made out of necessity on one lazy Sunday afternoon.I thought i had enough prawns to make curry so i didn't even bother to make a trip to market but when i opened my freezer there it was 1/2 pound of prawns bag staring at my face & laughing but i had to make it work as my kid is hungry and i promised her prawns.thank god at least i had eggs and something very funny flashed in my mind and i went ahead with it.My baby was very happy with the outcome & so am i.Later i found out from my friends that there are different variations to make it but so many people never knew about it including me.So now lets see what the funny idea is
