Egg Curry will rank very well on my small listing of comfort foods. It is indeed my go-to dish after i desire a non-vegetarian meal but don't have meat, chicken or fish in the home. Since eggs are generally a staple within the kitchen, it's also easy to prepare.
There are many variations to make Egg Curry with various regions Indian cooking it differently. This recipe is North Indian in origin. The gravy for egg curry can be created in advance and frozen. Then when you're prepared to eat it, simply boil the eggs, thaw as well as heat the gravy through, add some eggs and also you're all set. Egg curry is really a family favorited too as possible allow it to be as mild as you desire or as 'hot' as you desire by modifying the spices to meet your requirements. Personally I love it hot! Serve Egg Curry having a vegetable side dish and grain.
