This is an interesting Egg
Prawn Mini Omelette recipe I picked up from a Bengali magazine. Undoubtedly, it
is one of my favourite omelettes now. I like these omelettes especially in
breakfast served with a toast. When guests are invited, I keep the egg-prawn
mixture ready in advance so while the guests ensconce themselves comfortably at
our home, I quickly prepare the omelettes and serve with tea. I just love the
bewildered expression on their faces after they discover prawns in the
omelettes.

shrimps

chopped)

non-stick skillet. Add ginger and garlic when oil turns hot. Shallow fry
them.
2) Add onion and fry till
translucent. Add tomato and fry till soften.
3) Add green chillies and
