EGG MALAI CURRY

Egg Malai curry is a low spice egg curry in a creamy gravy. The easiest dish you can cook in no time. Bengali delicacy in which hard boiled eggs are cooked in a creamy milk based gravy. This is very rich and mild curry which goes best with plain steamed rice or roti. This is a kid friendly dish as very less spices are used. If you love egg, this is a must try. Here is the easy recipe you can enjoy.


Ingredients :

1. Hard boiled eggs - 4 
2. Onion -2 (roughly chopped)
3. Green chillies - 2-3 (as per taste)
4. Ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
5. Cumin powder - 1 tsp
6. Garam masala powder - 1 tsp
7. Pepper powder - 1/2 tsp
8. Coriander leaves - finely chopped (for garnishing)
9. Milk - 1 cup
10. Salt to taste
11. Oil / ghee - 3 tsp
12. Cream - 2 tsp

Process:

1. In a frying pan, add oil/ghee (whichever you are using, I have used ghee) and add onions, green chillies, ginger garlic paste and mix well in low flame. Stir it often for around 15 minutes till the paste changes its color. 
2. In a separate pan add little oil and fry the eggs. No need to make them golden brown, just little bit of fry. (You can just add the boiled eggs also in the gravy, without frying them) 
2. Add all the powder spices in the masala gravy and give it a good stir. Once we see a nice aroma is coming out, add milk and salt. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. 
3. Now add the boiled and fried eggs (you can cut some eggs into halves also, and keep some as whole). Add fresh cream and finely chopped coriander. You can use dried fenugreek leaves (Kasoori methi) also.

Serve hot with steamed rice.
