About

Egg buns are savory pastries filled with sliced hard-boiled eggs, often enjoyed as a quick and satisfying snack or light meal. The filling for egg buns consists of hard-boiled eggs that have been sliced and seasoned with salt, pepper, and sometimes spices like curry powder or paprika. The sliced eggs are then placed into a split soft, slightly sweet baked bun, often slathered with margarine or a spicy mustard paste for added flavor and moisture. Egg buns are commonly found at bakeries, snack shops, and street food stalls throughout Sri Lanka, offering a convenient and protein-rich snack option. Whether enjoyed on their own or paired with a cup of tea or coffee, egg buns are a delicious and satisfying choice for those craving a taste of Sri Lankan cuisine.
