Spicy Egg Curry Or Boiled Egg Curry / Egg Recipes
Wednesday, July 10, 2013
Well, there are different varieties of Egg Curry. Today I am going to share a simple yet spicy egg curry recipe, by frying the boiled eggs before I drop into the curry. Well, you can omit frying the eggs if you don't like it crispy. My mom is a vegetarian so, we have eggs once in a while, not regularly. But since I shifted to USA most of my room mates and other friends used to prepare egg dishes at least 4 times a week. This was because most us had no idea how to cook. Trust me until I met Jeet I had no idea of how to make food other than cooking rice, rasam and egg. This was and is my favorite egg dish ever. So, lets get started.
Ingredients:
| Eggs boiled | 5 |
| Onion | 1 |
| Cinnamon | 1 |
| Cloves | 3 |
| Tomato | 1 |
| Turmeric | 1 tsp |
| Salt | to taste |
| Red chili powder | 1 Tbsp |
| Tandoori Masala | 1/2 Tbsp |
| Cilantro | To garnish |
| Ginger garlic paste | 1 Tbsp |
Method:
Boil the eggs and cut into half. Heat oil in a tava or pan and add turmeric, salt to it. Then spread it all around the tava.
Place all the eggs on the tava and fry it for a minute on a medium flame until its crispy. Now flip it on the other side and fry it for a minute again.
Heat oil in a kadai or pan. Add cinnamon, cloves, ginger garlic paste and saute for a minute. Add onions and fry until its translucent.
Add tomatoes, red chili powder, tandoori masala powder, salt and cook until the tomatoes are soft. Add one cup water (or add water according to your preference, depends on how much gravy you need) and bring it to boil.
Once it starts boiling add the fried eggs. Mix well but, not too much that the egg yolk separates from the egg white. Cook for 5 minutes in medium heat and garnish it with cilantro.
Serve hot with chapati, naan, rice or fried rice.
Tips:
- You can add or omit tandoori masala.
- Instead of tandoori masala you can use garam masala.
- Adding tandoori masala brings a nice flavor to it.
- You can omit frying the eggs in the beginning.
