Egg Masala

Egg masala (notes as Lasaya Cooks)

Her kitchen was filled the scents of cumin, onions, and everything good. She greeted me at the door, and made me tea. As she cooked, I opened each container in her pantry and we laughed as I guessed what was in each one. We ate dinner discussing the importance of making friends outside of your own culture. We talked about the effects of fast fashion in India and her hometown. We shared stories from our childhood, and laughed about the differences and similarities between them.
