Vermicelli & Scrambled Eggs - Breakfast Recipe

Big problem for the ladies in our home, specially those who are working have even bigger problem to solve each day and now with unlock mode, offices have started as well. The problem is what to quickly make for breakfast which everybody can have. Something which is tasty and can be cooked quickly.

I have a solution for them today, in the form of a recipe which contains Vermicelli (Sewai / Semiya) and Eggs (Anda). Well, my vegetarian friends, do not get upset, just replace the eggs with paneer (cottage cheese).

Vermicelli also known as sewai in hindi, is made from either rice (chawal) or semolina (sooji / suji) and looks like straw or thin spaghetti shaped strings / noodles broken into small 1" to 2" size pieces. They are found in white color (plain) or in brown color (roasted). So let us make a quick breakfast with vermicelli and scrambled eggs. Let's Begin.....

Ingredients & Steps:

• In a big mixing bowl
• Break 5 eggs
