EGG CURRY

This is my mom's recipe. Even though I don't eat egg, I prepare dishes with egg as my kids like them. So here goes the zatpat recipe of egg curry

Ingredients

Egg 4 boiled, peeled and halved
Onion 1 big chopped finely
Oil as needed
Salt to taste
Coriander for garnishing

For ground masala
Cinnamon stick 1 inch
Cloves 3-4
Coriander seeds 2 tsp
Fennel seeds (saunf) 2 tsp
Poppy seeds (khus-khus) 1 tsp
Haldi 1/2 tsp
Red chillies 5-6
Coriander leaves 1 bunch
Coconut 1 cup
Tamarind paste 1 tsp
Ghee

Method
Saute all the ingredients for ground masala in ghee except for coriander leaves and tamarind paste. Grind it to a fine paste with coriander leaves and tamarind paste adding little water.

Heat oil in kadai. Add chopped onion. Saute till golden. Add ground masala and salt. Add little water as per the desired consistency. Bring it to a boil. Lower the flame, add halved eggs. The masala should cover the eggs. Cover and cook on a low flame for 5 mins.

Garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot with chapati or rotis.
