Caviar omelets

Caviar / fish eggs are known as parinjeen or pananjil in our place. (Don't know how it is known in other places of Kerala.) This is a very simple dish which we would make just as we prepare our usual omelets.



Ingredients
Fish eggs / caviar 1 cup
onion 1
tomato 1
pepper powder 1 tsp
green chillies 2
curry leaves few
turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
eggs 2
salt
oil



Method
Wash and cook caviar with salt , turmeric powder and enough water. Remove outer skin (if it has) and mash it.Chop all the vegetables. Break eggs into a bowl. Add the chopped vegetables, pepper powder and salt. Mix together , just like for making omlettes.Heat a pan, spread little oil make and omelettes. Make small omelettes. Otherwise it will break.
