Egg puff

One of our favorite snacks is egg puffs. Many prepare with plain egg , just salt and pepper on it and bake. I prefer to prepare a dry masala to fill the puffs. Its simple and tastes better too. Egg puff with ketchup reminds me my school days. There was a bakery named “vas bakery” near my school in Mangalore, they used to serve the best egg puffs and cream buns. Those days that bakery was our celebration point. Well, my recipe is here 🙂
