Scrambled eggs is a dish made from beaten whites and yolks of eggs .Beaten eggs are put into a hot greased pan and stirred frequently, forming curds as they coagulate.Scrambled eggs are made special with chopped veggies and green onions.You can mix any vegetables..here i have mixed bottle gourd.You can also mix tomoto,cabbage,cauliflower etc.
The main adavantage of mixing other veggies is ,if you are health concious,dont want to eat many eggs in a single day and also you need the quantity of curry should be more especially if you have invited your guests to dinner/lunch..this curry will be easy to make and no need to use many eggs in the curry just add other veggies inorder to gain the curry quantity :)
Even if you added bottle gourd,the taste doesn't change..it tastes more with bottle gourd rather than single egg!!
