Egg Masala

I have become very lazy to blog after moving to Austin. I am always busy with something or the other & been addicted to TV off late:) Well I have also been taking cake decoration class here & I realized that I love teaching so much. My classes went on very well & my students were great. I finally thought, I should seriously make some time for blogging & here I am the "lazy me" Some of you must have already checked my egg masala video recipe. Today I will be posting the same recipe here. You can also visit the video here.

Serves: 4
Making time: 30-40 mins
Video Recipe : here

Ingredients:

• 5 Boiled eggs
• 2 cups thinly chopped onions (Cut them long)
• 2 medium red tomatoes finely chopped
• 1 Tbsp. minced garlic
• 1 tbsp. minced Ginger
• 1 tsp. mustard seeds
• 6 to 8 curry leaves
• 1 tbsp. coriander powder
• 1 tsp. cumin powder
• 1 tsp. chili powder
• 1/4 tsp. turmeric powder
• 1/4 tsp. Black pepper powder
• 1/2 tsp. Garam Masala Powder (Everest)
• Salt as per taste
• 4 Tbsp. of Oil

 
Directions:

1. Boil around 5 to 6 eggs. For perfect boiled eggs, make sure you are using cold water. The eggs should be fully covered under water & boil them for 12- 15 mins. Add a tbsp. of salt to the water. Once they are boiled, put them in the cold water & wait for another 5 to  10 mins until they are cooled. Once they are cooled completed, remove the skin slowly. This way you will get perfect boiled eggs.
2. Add about 2 Tbsp. of oil in a Pan, once heated,  crackle the mustard seeds
3. Add in ginger garlic & onions into them. Now allow the onions to turn pink. This will take about 3 to 5 mins. Make sure you keep sautéing in between.
4. Once the onions turn pink, add in tomatoes & cook this again for another 3 to 5 mins, until the tomatoes are all mashed up.
5. Add in all the dry Masala powder into this mixture & saute well.
6. Season this with salt as per taste & also add in curry leaves.
7. Cut the eggs into half. Now in a separate flat pan, add about 2 tbsp. of oil and shallow fry the eggs for about 2 to 3 minutes on both sides.
8. Now slowly coat the Masala on to the fried eggs & the dish is ready to serve.
