Egg Curry
Ingredients:
- 4 hard-boiled eggs, peeled and halved
- 2 onions, finely chopped
- 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
- 2 green chilies, slit lengthwise (adjust to taste)
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon coriander powder
- 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (adjust to taste)
- 1/2 teaspoon garam masala
- Salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons oil
- Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Instructions:
1. **Prepare the eggs:**
- Boil the eggs until they're hard-boiled. Once boiled, let them cool, peel, and cut them in half lengthwise.
2. **Prepare the masala:**
- Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them splutter.
- Add chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.
- Add minced ginger and garlic, and sauté for another minute until the raw smell disappears.
- Add chopped tomatoes and green chilies. Cook until the tomatoes turn soft and mushy.
3. **Spice it up:**
- Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for a couple of minutes until the spices are well incorporated and the oil starts to separate from the masala.
4. **Add water and eggs:**
- Pour in about a cup of water, and adjust according to your desired consistency for the curry. Bring it to a gentle boil.
- Carefully add the halved hard-boiled eggs to the curry.
5. **Simmer:**
- Let the curry simmer on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together and the eggs to absorb some of the curry flavors.
6. **Garnish and serve:**
- Once done, sprinkle garam masala and garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves.
- Serve hot with steamed rice or roti.
Enjoy your delicious egg curry! Feel free to adjust the spice levels and consistency of the curry according to your taste preferences.
