Favourite food. Everyone has their own, and most people in this world have not one, but multiple favourite foods. In case, by now if you have a fair acquaintance with this website, you might have realised that every now and then, some or the other dishes have been claimed to be favourite by me. And trust me, like many others in this world, all these claims are true.
In our lifetime we taste so many different foods. Among them we like few, we dislike few and we tolerate others. Among the foods we like, some become our favourites, and in the course of time as we keep on eating, so many dishes become our favourites that it actually sounds weird. Tell me if this is not true, then how can you explain the confusion running in your mind, when you are allowed to choose just one dish among, ‘the cheesy pizza’, ‘the creamy pasta’, ‘the hot momos’, ‘the slurpy gulab jamun’ and ‘the walnut brownie with vanilla ice cream & hot chocolate sauce’.
Yes, just like it is becoming almost impossible for me to move on to my next sentence, I can very well imagine, how difficult it must be for you to choose only one dish among all your favourite dishes mentioned above. My God! I can only pray. May God not let anyone face this most difficult situation in their life :*)
Also, if you have noticed, few of these favourite foods are temporary in terms of preference, and the preference change over time, and frequent and easy accessibility reduce their significance in the world of taste buds. However, there are few foods or dishes which we prefer to eat again and again, and no matter how much we are fed with these foods through-out our lives, we just don’t get tired of them. Amazing it is. It only looks like our taste buds have created safe places for those foods in their so-called realm, and they are protecting these ‘safe places’ with all their means.
Anyway, indeed it is very difficult to understand the complicate world of taste buds and the criteria for favourite foods. But for me, the dishes which have been chosen by my taste buds as forever favourites are, Omelette & Maggi. Like I mentioned earlier, how much ever I eat them, I just don’t get tired of them. Thus, combining these two dishes into one was a natural process for me. And so I present today’s recipe post, ‘Maggi Stuffed Omelette’
Wherever you travel, in India, like you and me, you are going to find similar Maggi and Omelette lover in abundance, and many of them must have already tried their version. If you are not one of us, I strongly recommend you try this ‘Maggi Stuffed Omelette’ today.
