    Hi Sumana!.Many South Tamilians used to add curry leaves(they used to saute chopped onions,chopped green chillies & curry leaves in 1 tsp oil and add this to the beaten egg mixture with salt,mix it and spread omlette in a tawa or dosa pan).KK.Com viewers,please try this recipe with 3/4 tsp saunf (powdered) instead of 1 tsp cumin powder.This surely gives better taste to the Curry.

    curry leaves in omlette? Bit apprehensive about that! Rest of the procedure sounds good.Good work Christy!
