How Indian lifters actually use Anda Bhurji (2 eggs)
Every gram of protein you can source from real food beats a scoop. Weigh raw when you can — a '150g chicken' portion at a restaurant is often 90g cooked. Fat-forward — a little goes a long way, especially on a cut. The dish is most common in all kitchens, but works anywhere in India — the ingredients are pantry-standard.
Where it fits in your day
Fat-dense foods sit heavy — keep them earlier in the day or on the meal furthest from training. Skip them in the pre-workout window; fat slows gastric emptying and can leave you sluggish under the bar.
Cost & convenience (India)
Moderate protein density (9.3g/100g). Not the cheapest protein per gram, but it doubles as a source of carbs and micronutrients — so it earns its rupee spend twice.
Common myths
"You need 2× the protein if you lift" — the evidence caps out around 1.6–2.2g/kg bodyweight. Anything above that is expensive urine.
