Serves: 4
Ingredients:
4 Hardboiled Eggs
1 C red onions, finely chopped
2 green chillies, cut lengthwise
2 C grapevine tomatoes, finely chopped
½ t turmeric powder (haldi)
1 t red chilli powder(reduce to your spice level)
1 t paprika powder for color
1 t Aachi biryani masala powder
1 t ginger garlic paste
2 t cooking oil, I use olive or canola oil
salt as per your taste
½ C water
non-stick pan or kadai for cooking
2 T chopped cilantro, for garnish
Method:
- Boil 4 eggs in 3 cups of water or till the eggs are submerged fully in water. For eggs to be removed easily from its shell, check this procedure: Boil eggs for 10 mins on medium high and turn off the flame. Let it stand in the boiled water for 5 more minutes and then cool them in cold water for 3 minutes. Following this method will give you a bright yellow, firm egg yolk and a clean eggwhites, easy to remove shell instead of the chipped ones. You can do this for deviled eggs too.
- For the curry, heat oil in a kadai or pan. Let it heat through and start adding curry leaves first and then red onions. Add a pinch of salt to let the juices from onions come out and fry till they turn pinkish in color.
- Add ginger garlic paste, green chillies and chopped tomatoes and saute it for 10 minutes. Tomatoes should turn into gravy consistency then add all the spices and powders like turmeric powder, chilli powder, paprika powder, biryani masala and salt. Fry for another minute or two and then add ½ cup water. Now close with a tight lid and let the curry cook.
- Meanwhile make slits on the hardboiled eggs with a paring knife so that way the curry get into the eggs halfway. Add these eggs tot he curry and cook for another 5 mins or so.
- Check for salt and garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve with cooked rice or pasta.
