*Notes:
Peechinga is a vegetable with lots of water , so it’s better to wash before slicing .
Even after making the dish you can see a lot of water in the pan, that’s why I had used Egg. After adding Egg you can see most of the water will be sucked in & it really gives a nice flavor to Peechinga.
In this dish I had used Shrimp & Egg, it’s always an optional items to be used .
