Egg Curry.

The other day, and that day was the day before yesterday, i tried making egg curry. Luckily. this time the cooking was good. wait! i forgot to add salt to it. Nonetheless, it turned out to be decent enough. Urggh! salt addition would have got me 5/5.

What follows is the recipe for making egg curry. Again, i thought i cut more tomatoes, so i ate the half of the last tomato. Aren't tomatoes supposed to be good for health? Onto the recipe now.

1. Mustard Oil, say 30-50 ml.
2. Sesame Seeds - 1/4 tablespoon.
3. Onion - Medium sized - 1.
4. Tomato - 2 ......and half.
5. Ginger-garlic paste - 1 tablespoon.
6. Garam Masala Powder - 1 tablespoon.
7. Boiled and skinned Potato - 2 medium sized.
8. Boiled Egg - medium sized - 3.
9. Salt to taste.

Boiling potatoes and eggs:
Fill a vessel with water and keep it for heating. Add potatoes and eggs in it. Allow the heating to continue for 20-25 minutes. After the heating, allow the content to cool. Then peel the skin of the potatoes, cut and keep them aside.
Break the egg shells and cut each boiled egg into two. Keep this aside as well.

Make sure all the ingredients are ready before starting the cooking process.

Steps:
Pour the oil into a pan. Allow it to heat for a while. Now, add the sesame seeds. Keep stirring the contents in the pan. Add the cut onions and tomatoes into the pan. Keep mixing the contents. After a while add the ginger garlic paste. Keep mixing. You will start noticing the paste forming in the pan. After sufficient mixing, which i would say 5 - 10 mins, add the potatoes and the eggs. Keep mixing again. Now, add garam masala powder. Keep mixing the whole content well. If at any point you see the contents sticking to the pan, add little amount of water to avoid sticking. Keep cooking or mixing or stirring until the vegetables are sufficiently cooked. You can check this by trying to split a potato with a spoon. If it can be split easily then your curry is done. Wait, there's one more thing

Sprinkle salt over the curry (Oops! i forgot this one.). Add coriander leaves as a garnishing agent.


Egg curry done. Happy cooking!
