"Perfect Egg Rolls" made on round pan and served with Tomato Ketchup ... A delicious tummy filling dishes that will be loved by all those who love eggs ... Eggs are full of proteins and are good body builders of stronger bones, muscles etc. Include them into your daily diet ... Yummilicious ....

** I had never ever eaten an Egg Rolls till date and have absolutely no knowledge of the same. However whenever I heard about them I wonder what they were, how they looked and yes, tasted too. After searching through blogs and you tubes I came across some Japanese Videos that showed the preparation of Egg rolls on square pan. These are prepared with seasoned beaten eggs and are the same as the omelette we prepared except for the fact that they are rolled over to a roll the minute the bottom of egg poured on pan gets cooked. And the egg batter is kept adding on one side so that you keep repeating the rolling process till you get a good 3-4 layers rounded roll or more if you want to make them thicker. 

** Easy, Isn't it and there is absolutely no need to go in for a square pan, I used round pan and they came out perfectly great. The Rolls turn out really soft and delicious and can be served with just tomato ketchup to dunk in the pieces and relish, there is absolutely no need to serve it with bread slices. You can add in a few grated carrots too for more health benefits, especially if you have younger children at home who are always reluctant to eat veggies, I did not have any, so stuck to onions and tomatoes. These are quite tummy filling and can be served as one meal too or you can serve the pieces as starters if you are having a party at home. In all definitely a delicious dish that must be included into you diet. Enjoy them hot. 

** Here is my simple method of preparing "Perfect Egg Rolls" ... My own Style .... 

** For the Egg Rolls Batter : In a glass bowl add three whole eggs, ¼ cup of milk, pinch of salt, ¼ tsp of roughly crushed black pepper powder and beat well. Keep aside. 

** Chop 1 large or 2 medium sized onions to very fine pieces. Chop one tomato also to very fine pieces after discarding off the center seeds. 

** Cut 2-3 green chillies also to very fine pieces. All the three onion, tomato and chillies should be finely cut so that the rolls to not break on rolling. Add all to the beaten eggs and mix well. 

** To Prepare the Egg Rolls : Heat a large sized non stick pan to smoking point, then lower the heat to minimum. Apply ghee with a brush all over the pan. 

** Pour 2 ladle full of the egg batter into the round pan swirling it into shape. If not tilt the pan so that the egg batter gets evenly round. Let cook on medium heat. 

** When the bottom part of the omelette gets cooked. Gently run the spatula all round the omelette. Start rolling the omelette gently into a roll from one side ie. from right to left till you reach the center point of the omelette. 

** Press down flatly the rolled egg roll omelette. Stop rolling the omelette and gently shift the omelette towards the right side. The omelette will look like a roll on one side with semi circle on the left side. 

** Now brush some ghee on the pan that is open and pour another ladle full of the egg batter on that side taking care to not pour on the semi circle part of the omelette but sealing them at the same time. 

** I have added step by step pictures for the benefit of understanding the process properly ... do check it out, it is very easy and the picture always says it all, so just go ahead, try it out and  enjoy with family  ...

** Now shift the pan a bit so that the heat is centered towards the newly added egg batter. This is done to ensure that the batter cooks fast and also the rolled part of the omelette roll does not get overcooked or burnt. 

** Keep repeating the process till all the egg batter is used and you are able to prepare the rolls. Finally, gently tilt the pan and slip the egg roll into the serving plate. Give slant cuts to the rolls and place them on a serving plate. 

** "Perfect Egg Rolls" are done and ready to be served. Serve the Egg Rolls hot with some tomato ketchup, it tastes wonderful. You can add in a few bread slices if desired, but I personally found it not necessary as then it tastes more like omelettes. 

** Note : Though the method seems a bit tedious, but once achieved it really gives a great satisfaction while munching on the soft rolls. And with practice one is able to do this faster. So if you love eggs in any form especially omelette style please do give this a try. You will definitely crave for more.
