Recipes → India

Egg curry was my very first dish in India. I recall the picture with all the details. The food was delicious, 10 locals where looking at me like at a sacred picture, they were nodding their heads from side to side, smiling and the room was filled with the amazing smell of masala tea.

Process

Heat up oil in a pan, add cumin seeds, garlic and ginger. In less than a minute add curry leaves, onion and green chilies. Fry 3 minutes.

Add tomatoes, turmeric and salt to taste. In 2-3 minutes add chili powder and coriander powder.

In 3 more minutes add garam masala, stir. Pour in some water, just a little bit more that volume of the mix in pan. Stir well.

Add cilantro, saute about 7 minutes.

Put eggs into the sauce, warm up and serve.
