Mostly people celebrate making home made sweets st home during independence day. My mom makes patoli its a turmeric leaf wrapped with filling of jaggery and coconut. I will miss that mom tomorrow.

Notes
1. While you add eggs it's important you keep some space between the eggs. 2. Also it's crucial you don't stir in between else you will have scrambled eggs. Once the eggs are cooked then you can stir but gently.
3. If you garnish your curry with slices of boiled eggs it looks presentable and 4. your kids, family will love them.
5. You can alter the spices as per your preference.
6. You could add boiled eggs if you wish to. While boiling eggs just add a t/s of salt Or vinegar this helps the egg shells not to crack.
