Delicious Gravy Egg Curry

All You Need:

• Large Eggs – 6 (I have used brown eggs, you can use white eggs too)
• Onion – 1 Large  (approx 1 cup finely chopped)
• Tomato – 1 Large and 1/2 medium size (approx 1 cup finely chopped)
• Oil – 1 1/2 tbsp
• Cumin Seeds – 1/4 tsp
• Bayleaf – 1
• Red Chili – 2
• Salt to taste
• Turmeric Powder – 1 or 2 pinch
• Cumin Powder – 1 tsp
• Chili Powder – 2 tsp
• Coriander Powder – 3 tsp (Coarsely ground)
• Garam masala – 1/4 tsp
• Ginger Garlic paste – 1 tsp
• Water – 1 1/2 cup
• Coconut Milk (thick) – 1 tbsp
• Coriander leaves – few springs
• Kasuri Methi – 1 tsp (Optional, but recommended)

 The Recipe:
     Boil eggs:

• In a pressure cooker, add some water (around 2 cups), eggs and 1/4 tsp of salt and pressure cook for 3 whistles.
• Open the lid after the steam releases.
• Peel the egg shell and create small slits around the egg (4-5 slits). This helps the curry to penetrate into the eggs.

    Sauce:

• In a sauce pan or a kadai, pour 1 1/2 tbsp of oil.  When it is hot add 1/4 tsp of cumin seeds, 1 bayleaf. Let the cumin seeds splutter.
• On a medium flame, add 1 cup of finely chopped onions. Saute for 10-12 minutes or until it shrinks and turns golden brown.
• You can add turmeric powder as you saute.
• Add 1 or 2 tbsp of water if the onion sticks to the pan.
• You can even add some salt to help the onion shed some moisture.
• Add 1 cup(little less) of finely chopped tomatoes and saute for another 5-6 minutes until it turns mushy and blends nicely with the onion.
• Now add the spices (cumin powder, coriander powder, chili powder) and fry for 2 minutes.
• Add 1 tsp of ginger garlic paste and saute for 3-4 minutes until the raw smell disappears.
• Now add 1 1/2 cup of water and cook for 10 minutes on a low flame covered with lid.
• Add 1/4 tsp of garam masala, 1 tbsp of coconut milk (I used the canned coconut milk) and cook for 5 more minutes on a low flame.
• Create small slits on the egg and add it to the gravy. Cook for 5 minutes in medium low flame.
• Garnish it with chopped coriander leaves, kasuri methi(optional) and serve with rice or rotis.
