METHOD:
  • Heat oil in a pan and add the thinly sliced onions and sauté it until they start to turn brown. Do not let them burn, the onions should just start to caramelize.
  • Add crushed ginger and garlic to this and sauté until the raw smell is gone.
  • Now add turmeric powder, coriander powder, chilly powder , cloves, cardamom powder, cinnamon powder, Fennel powder and sauté for 10-12 minutes in medium flame until the whole mixture has a deep brown color.
  • Add water and salt to the masala and stir to mix well. If you want a dry curry, you can reduce the amount of water.
  • When the water starts to boil, turn off the stove.
  • Place the boiled eggs cut into half on top of the curry carefully and pour some gravy over it to make sure they get coated with the masala.
  • You would not want to stir the gravy with the eggs, as it.
