Egg Curry

Like others I used canned diced tomatoes. Dish had good flavor. Slightly bitter.

We thought this was very good. I had hard boiled eggs to use up, and this recipe hit my in box at the perfect time. The only variation I made was using whole canned Marzano's, as that is what I had and I halved it for the two of us. I also put the green cardamom pads in a spice bag as the thought of biting into one of those is distasteful Also used ground fresh ground pepper in stead of whole corns. I liked the idea of throwing in a few raw eggs to poach.

Add all but two of the eggs??? What do you do with those two?

Added 10 oz. baby spinach cooked in sauce, which I puréed before adding spinach and eggs.

Stir Fry the onions in the Air Fryer to avoid the onion aroma in the kitchen @ 260 for 15 minutes and checkin in between

This is also great with a 14oz package of firm tofu, cut in 1.5" cubes, instead of the eggs. The sauce is wonderful. Taking the time to carmelize the onions makes a difference. Next time I'll make extra carmelized onions and save them for a second batch.

I highly recommend blanching and peeling the tomatoes before chopping them. That step can be done in advance if you meal prep for the week. The recipe could also benefit from directions on what to do with the whole spices- either processing with a stick blender, wrapping in cheesecloth for easy removal, or similar. Biting into whole spices is not pleasant. Otherwise, this was an easy dish to make and well-balanced in flavor. Would try again with modifications.

Surprised nobody else is complaining about this, but next time I will grind the spices before frying bc I kept chomping on peppercorns and cardamom pods. I fried the egg halves face down in garlic butter, then spread the garlic butter on naan to make this healthy dish distinctly less healthy. Cheap, easy, and delicious.

Works nicely especially with more garlic. I added 2 diced medium Gold potatoes and 1 diced carrot to tone down the tomato acidic taste, Also added cumin powder, cayenne and a touch more coriander powder since I prefer these to Garam masala. Also a touch of coconut milk at the end takes it into amazing territory. Quite the filling meal with rice.

I cook for my brothers-in-law every Wednesday and these were a big hit this week. We had a lot of eggs to use and I correctly guessed that this recipe would make a dinner of hard-boiled eggs satisfying to a group of guys who work hard and eat hearty. I made it as written except I tossed the tomatoes in the blender rather than chopping them, and I’d do that again just to save time. We did not find it noticeably sweet as some commenters did. Served with a spinach dal and frozen naan. Delicious!

For 2, cut the sauce in half and used 5 hard-boiled eggs. It smelled fabulous cooking but the taste was missing something -- I'm just not sure what: More ginger, garlic, ground coriander? Or something additional that's not on the list, like cumin or mustard seeds? The recipe didn't call for covering it to cook, so for the sauce to be "runny" took a lot more than the half recipe's 1/2c water -- more like 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 c. The dish cooks long enough that tomato skins were not a problem.

Made this today. Was excellent. I tried it with and without a teeny bit of salt cracked over it as someone suggested. I much preferred the salt!

in bengal, or possibly elsewhere there's a version of this with omlettes, instead of boiling make as many omlettes as you want and incorporate into sauces.. but both cases I believe need to simmer/fry in the sauce a bit longer and have a sliiiight char from touching the pan bottom.

I did tweak the base curry by adding mustard seeds and curry leaf to the oil before adding chopped onions for more depth. Highly recommend peeling the tomatoes for a creamer sauce.

This egg curry was a delightful way to use up my leftover hardboiled Easter eggs! I loved all of the warm spices that made it feel like a special holiday dish, even though it was simple and humble. I took the advice of another subscriber and peeled the tomatoes, which I think made a big difference in the final texture.
