Egg Masala

 I had Egg Masala at a friends place the other day and really loved it. I knew my hubby would also love this recipe so I  made it for dinner last night. It takes the same time as Egg Curry and tastes as delicious as the egg curry. I added more spices as I know hubby dear loves spicy food. 
The best part is if he finds any food mild he will add some green chillies on side. So now a days I try to add green chillies to some recipes. No doubt the food gets hot but it also gives an additional flavor to the food.

  • 4-5 Eggs, Boiled

  • You can put a lid while cooking this mixture so the steam generated helps the mixture from sticking to the pan.
  • Now add the boiled eggs to this mixture.
  • Mix it well and so that the eggs get well coated with the masala.
  • Let it simmer for couple of minutes.
  • Egg Masala is ready. Garnish it with finely chopped coriander.
