Materials

  • 6 large Eggs
  • 2 medium Red Onions, chopped
  • 2 large Tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 tbsp Ginger Garlic Paste
  • 1 tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 2 tsp Red Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Garam Masala
  • 3 tbsp Cooking Oil
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  • Place eggs in a pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat and let sit for 10 minutes. Peel and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a pan. Sauté chopped onions until they turn golden brown.
  • Add ginger garlic paste and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Add tomatoes, turmeric, chili powder, and salt. Cook until tomatoes are soft and oil separates.
  • Pour in 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer to create a thick gravy.
  • Make small slits in the boiled eggs and add them to the gravy. Sprinkle garam masala.
  • Simmer for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs for the best firm texture.
  • Fry onions until dark brown for a rich color.
  • Make small slits in eggs to absorb the gravy.
  • Use fresh ginger and garlic for the best smell.
  • Add a splash of water if the sauce dries.
  • Sauté spices on low heat so they do not burn.
  • Let the curry sit for ten minutes before eating.
