Today I was
thinking what will be the prefect lunch menu for a snowy Sunday, because we
actually don’t have any plan to go out so a complete day at home with lots of
household works. So need to cook something which is simple but my husband wants
something special because it’s Sunday. From long time I wanted to prepare
CHICKEN DAK BUNGALOW but any how skipped my mind towards some other recipes. But
today finally I made it, a simple recipe where the combination of Chicken and
egg make the dish perfect.

very tasty and one pot recipe with egg and chicken to satisfy your family. Plain rice is the best
