EGG PIZZA

This recipe was accidently born. It was a bad weather, I mean extremely cold. Feeling lazy not in a mood to go for my day to day veggie and milk shopping which they call kaimono in Japanese. But, I had to go or else there is no milk for next day's morning coffee. Called up my hubby and asked him to get while he is returning back home. But, he said he will come home and then we could go. After he came we decided to go to a nearby super market with our 1 yr old naughty son without baby car i.e, either one of us carrying him. We did our veggie shopping which included a pack of 10 eggs. We arrived near the apartment main entrance and thought of exchanging veggie cover with our son. So I was exchanging my son for a veggie bag, didn't hold the carry bag and my hubby didn't notice and dropped the bag-so our eggs were cracked and they were supposed to be treated immediately. I was almost tired for the day and 6 eggs were with huge cracks so, how to get them treated immediately was my question? so, my hubby replied me with his run time recipe within 15-20 min. Here goes his run time recipe- EGG PIZZA- It was real yummy! Today we had some Japanese guest we had decided to add this in our menu. It was a huge hit and they enjoyed it saying Oishii!
