Bread Omlette

Bread Omlette (பிரட் அம்லேட்):
 In cuisine, an omelette is a dish made from beaten eggs quickly cooked with butter or oil in a frying pan. It is quite common for the omelette to be folded around a filling such as cheese, chives, vegetables, meat (often ham), or some combination of the above. 
The fluffy omelette is a refined version of an ancient food. According to Alan Davidson, the French word omelette came into use during the mid-16th century. Omlette's origin rates to France.
An Indian omelette, often called a Masala omelette, is usually made with the addition of spices, which vary by region. Those most commonly used are finely chopped green chilies, chopped onions, coriander leaf or powder, cumin and a pinch of turmeric, all of which are added to the egg before it is whisked.
Now we are going to see Bread Omlette which is a famous street food in Mumbai and aslo an easy breakfast.
