Omelet Curry

As I mentioned before, with mum around we are getting to experiment a bit  in kitchen and also retry old favorites, like this one Omelets curry. Mum used to make this a lot when we were kids but somehow growing up it was quiet forgotten in favor of a simple egg curry. 

Egg is a common favorite in my family so we decided to revisit this.
