Eggs Kejriwal: Dish
EGGS KEJRIWAL topped NY food critic’s list in 2017. Surprised?
It has nothing to do with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal although the marwari connection is very much there. Kejriwals belong to the Bania caste. They are astute businessmen. Mostly they are vegetarians. Many young people from the community eat non vegetarian food clandestinely.
The said dish was invented by Devi Prasad Kejriwal a businessman from Mumbai. Being a conservative marwari in he didn’t take eggs at home. But he enjoyed it after golf.
Good thing about the dish is easily available three ingredients Eggs, Cheese and Green Chilli. It hardly takes any time to prepare.
He would tell the waiter how to make it with a slice of cheese, a fried egg and, being a Marwari, he liked green chillies,“ says Ajay Kejriwal, his nephew.
How did it get thus peculiar name?
It got its name because other members began asking the waiter to give them the same what Kejriwal is having.
The dish topped New York Food Critic’s list. One reason cited is the commonality of the ingredients and easy way to prepare.
