    This recipe for Masala Egg Bhurji (Indian Scrambled Eggs) was created in partnership with Egg Farmers of Canada. All opinions, as always, are my own. I only write about and recommend products I use and love myself.

    The winter holiday season has always been one of my most favourite times of the year. The fresh snowfall, a burning fireplace, sipping on warm hot chocolate and reading a book all cosied up under a warm blanket - what's not to love! And then the food. All the glorious, delicious comfort foods. Along with this, the holiday season also brings with it time together with loved ones. And what's better than starting the day with your loved ones gathered together around the table over a scrumptious brunch that includes this Masala Egg Bhurji?

    I love waking up on Christmas morning and putting together a big, wholesome brunch for the family while the kids go crazy ripping open presents from under the tree. There's usually a bunch of us to feed, and as much as I love to cook for a crowd, I enjoy watching the excited expressions on everyone's faces more. Which is why in times like these I always rely on the large carton of eggs that I always have sitting in my fridge - Masala Egg Bhurji being a family favourite!

    Canada Grade A eggs are one of the kitchen’s most versatile ingredients. Incorporating eggs into your dishes is one way for home chefs can keep things simple and delicious this holiday season. Holiday treats made with eggs take on special meaning. Under Canada's system of supply management, the eggs you buy at the store are among the best in the world for quality and freshness and are locally produced.

    This Masala Egg Bhurji recipe is what I often fall back on when I need a quick, nutritious and tasty meal on the table in a hurry. It goes great with toast, buns or even rotis and parathas.
