Notes
The source states no timings, so the page shows none.
"cxhopped" was a typo in the source and was corrected to "chopped". Nothing else was changed.
The source states 6 eggs but never how many people it feeds, so serves is left blank.
The wording was already reformatted before it reached us, which is why this is adapted rather than reproduced.
No story. No ads. Adapted from Chhaya Karnik · Changed: reformatted into numbered steps; the wording is not verbatim hers
