In the past, when I was leaving with my family, I used to eat eggs as often as possible. In a week, I can eat eggs at least 3 times, but currently, as I'm leaving alone, the price of eggs is too high for me to afford to eat to my satisfaction. So currently, I eat eggs only once in a while when I visit my family because over there, eggs is a mandatory part of the meal every Sunday. There are many ways of preparing eggs, whether boiled, fried, scrambled or as an omelette. But my favourite way to prepare egg is scrambled. I break my eggs into a bowl and whisk it, then I add salt, I fry the oil in a pan and when hot, I add my onions and vegetables before adding my eggs and my scrambled eggs comes out tasty.

I do not add seasonings to my eggs, but I may sometimes add tomatoes. I add just salt, pepper and lots of onions to my eggs and lots of garlic and little ginger and that is enough. The side dish I enjoy with my eggs are bread and tea wiry scrambled eggs, boiled potatoes or yam with scrambled eggs, rice with eggs, etc.
