A friend got this dish at work. During lunch time she offered me to taste and guess what it was.
Ya people think since I love cooking I must be an expert in identifying foods by flavor and texture! I always thought I am good at it until last week when at a party I realized how bad I am in recognizing flavors. So there was this contest of identifying the flavors of twelve baby foods that were kept. I could just identify three! I could not identify carrot and confused it with mango! Silly! And there was one which was great in taste and I kept on tasting it until the judge warned me. And unfortunately I could not recognize that too! Blame the judge for not allowing me to taste enough! But that was awesome in taste! Later I came too know it was banana and pineapple. I think I will get this baby food at home sometime so that I can have it as much as I want without any warning from anyone.
So here also I could not recognize what dish it was. And then she revealed its egg. I was amazed to see egg in this form and it tasted awesome. It was so delicious that I had to try it at home. Very easy to prepare and a real treat to foodies.
