Egg Curry

Another recipe from Indian cuisine that won me over from the first, of course I adapted it to what I usually have on the spice shelf and what I found in stores. Do not be afraid of the combination and the number of ingredients, everything combines perfectly.

Ingredients

Boiled eggs
5 pieces
White onion
1 piece
Garlic cloves
4 pieces
Chilli pepper
0.5 pieces
mine was green, and not hot at all - it's optional anyway
Tomatoes
2 pieces
I used 100g canned tomatoes
Fresh shredded ginger
1 tsp
or 0.5 teaspoon of ginger powder
Coconut milk
200 g
1 cup - you can replace it with heavy cream
Mustard seeds
1 tsp
ideally it should be black mustard - but I put yellow mustard seeds
Sweet paprika
1 tsp
Curcuma/turmeric
0.25 tsp
Curry powder
1 tsp
Vegetable oil
4 tbsp
Fresh parsley
2 tbsp
it's perfect if you have curry leaves here or chopped green coriander - I replace them with parsley

Step by step

Step 1

Boil hard-boiled eggs, cool them with cold water, clean.

Step 2

It is very important to prepare all the ingredients in time - the preparation process is fast and does not burn anything in the pan.

So - chop the onion, grind the garlic, grate the ginger, chop the pepper (clean the seeds if you don't want the food to be too hot).

Step 3

On a plate, measure the spices - mustard, turmeric, paprika and curry.

Step 4

Finely chop the tomatoes, this is not the case if you have them canned.

Coconut milk can be found in any supermarket in the Asian products district - it is about 8-10 lei a jar and use half of it in the recipe. The rest can be frozen for another meal.

Make sure that a kind of coconut cream is added on top - and the liquid less often at the bottom - mix a little so that the milk is more uniform in composition.

And now we start cooking effectively:

- Put the oil and mustard seeds in a pan, cover with a lid - the mustard seeds will jump hard when the oil is heated.

As soon as the sautéed mustard has stopped, lower the heat under the pan, add the onion and pepper - leave for a while until it glazes / browns slightly (in about 20 seconds).
