Mutta Salna Recipe (South Indian Style Egg Drop Gravy)
Mutta Salna is a South Indian gravy that is served for parotta or chapathi. I always like the salna given for parotta in small Street side shops. It is very tasty and goes well for idli, dosa, idiyappam, chapathi or parotta. Make this and we are sure you will make it again and again.
