This time, Girish and I decided to venture to cook together. The result was not really a “spoilt broth” (going by the adage) but quite an unusual and very edible twist to a common Indian dish.
We usually make Egg Curry with the tomato, onion, garam masala gravy, but the coconut milk here gave it the “Kerala touch”. Definitely less spicier than the former version as it has the unexpected sweetness of the coconut.
Ingredients:
2 Bay Leaves
2 tsp Jeera (cumin seeds)
3 Cloves
2 Large Onions
4 Large Tomatoes
1/2 teaspoon Turmeric
2 spoons Garam Masala
1 spoon of Red Chilli Powder
1.5 Cans of Coconut Milk
8 Hard Boiled Eggs
6 tablespoon Oil
Method:
1. Dice the tomatoes and onions.
2. Boil the eggs and cut in half.
3. Take a heavy bottomed pan, and add the oil.
4. Add Jeera, cloves and Bay leaves
5. When this crackles a little, add the Onions and fry till they are almost golden brown. Now add the tomatoes and garam masala, salt and chilli powder. Cook for a couple more minutes until the oil starts to seep out.
6. Meanwhile, take the eggs halves and fry it gently with the yolk facing down. This keeps
the yolk in place when cooking in the gravy.
7. Now add the eggs to gravy and let it boil for a few minutes.
8. Lastly, add the coconut milk and boil for 2 mins. Garnish with scallion leaves and cilantro and serve hot with rice.
Looks scrumptious!
First time to your blog, why dont you register yourselves at these places for good readership:

Tried your recipe – without the coconut milk (didn’t have it in the pantry) – came out yum yum.
Have read abt your Costco veggie patties recipe, that was good too. They also have veggie meatballs, but I don’t know of a good dish to go with it. If you comeacross anything post it pls.
Also, do you know how to make Alfredo sauce? I tried the search functionality here in this blog, doesn’t seem to get results!
Thanks
look like its going to be a delicious meal when i will prepare tbis dish.
