Rava Aloo Cutlet Ingredients:
3 Medium Potatoes 
1/2 Cup Upma Rava (Semolina)
1/2 Tsp Turmeric Powder
1 Tbsp Pepper Powder
Salt as per taste
Oil as required 

Method:
Wash potatoes thrice. Cut the potatoes into halves and add to a pressure cooker. Cover the the potatoes with water place the lid and whistle and cook for 3 to 4 whistles. Once the potatoes are cooked drain and reserve.

Heat a wok on medium flame. For every one measure of rava, add two measures of water bring to rapid boil. I added 1 cup water.

Add 1 tbsp oil, turmeric powder, pepper powder and salt to the water. Add the rava and keep stirring constantly make sure no lumps form in this mixture.

Semolina will absorb all the moisture eventually forming a dough like consistency remove from flame allow to reach lukewarm temperature.

Peel the potatoes, crumble or grate and reserve.

Once the semolina has reached lukewarm temperature add the cooked potatoes and knead to form a smooth dough.

Apply oil to your hand and also a cookie cutter, take portions of the semolina mixture and press in the cookie cutter form patties and reserve until use in a air tight container refrigerated.

Just before serving heat oil for frying in a wok on low flame allow to reach smoking temperature. Gently drop the patties and fry on medium flame till the cutlets turn light and golden in color. 

It roughly took me 5 minutes to fry the cutlets in even brown color on each side. Drain excess oil and reserve the cutlet on tissue paper. serve as hot as possible.

Tomato Kachumber Ingredients:
2 Tomatoes
1 Large Onion
2 Green Chilies
5 Sprigs Coriander
1 Lime
Salt as per taste...

We can serve this tomato dish as chunky salad or grind and form chutney to serve with breads and crispy fried dishes.

Method:
Wash, peel and roughly chop the onions. Wash and roughly chop the tomatoes. Finely chop chilies and coriander.

In a mixing bowl combine all the ingredients along with half lime juice and salt as per taste. Mix well cover and place in refrigerator until use.

This salad tastes excellent chilled. Pairs well with eggs, cutlet, breads and sausages. 

Masala Egg Scramble Ingredients: 
5 Eggs
5 Sprigs Coriander
4 Green Chilies
1 Large Onion
2 Large Tomatoes
1 Tbsp Chilly Powder
1/2 Tsp Turmeric Powder
1/2 Tsp Garam Masala (Everest Kitchen King Masala)
1 Tbsp Ginger and Garlic Paste
Salt as per taste
5 Tbsp Oil

Method:
Peel and Wash the onion, chilies, coriander and tomato, finely chop all the veggies.

Heat a wok with oil on medium flame. Add the ginger and garlic paste to the oil and fry for a minute or until the raw flavor reduces.

Add the chilies and finely chopped onions fry till the onions turn transparent. Add the turmeric powder, chilly powder and garam masala fry till raw flavor reduces.

Add the finely chopped tomatoes and fry on medium flame. Add salt as per taste, tomatoes take a minimum of 5 minutes to cook on medium flame.

Once the tomatoes have cook the oil will surface on top of the masala. Add the eggs and start to scramble. Cook the egg on low flame to achive fluffy texture.

Constantly keep stirring and scramble the eggs. Adjust salt as per taste, once the egg has cooked the oil will surface on the sides, garnish with coriander and serve hot.

Start your day with freshly extracted fruit juices. I prepared mosambi juice. Final component for my brunch was sausages, I shallow fried the sausages in a tsp of oil and served my brunch.

I am thoroughly enjoying this breakfast brunch series. Masala egg scramble was awesome it tasted like mince meat masala. Rava cutlets with tomato kachumber was refreshing and filled me up instantly. Over all concept creating a meal like this is to gather the family and enjoy quality time.
