Instructions

Step 1

Blend onions, garlic, ginger, green chilies, coriander leaves, and tomato into a smooth paste. Set it aside.

Step 2

Take 5-6 boiled eggs and gently prick them with a fork. Heat some oil in a pan and fry the eggs until they turn a light golden brown. Remove and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pan with the oil, add the blended mixture and cook it for about 4-5 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Step 4

Stir in salt, chili powder, turmeric, coriander powder, chili flakes, and cumin seeds. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Pour in some fresh cream to make the gravy smooth and creamy. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes.

Step 6

Add the fried eggs to the gravy—feel free to cut them in half if you like.

Step 7

Sprinkle with fresh coriander leaves, then serve hot with lachha parathas or rice. Enjoy!
