EGG CURRY

Ingredients
6 large eggs
2 onions finely chopped
2 tomatoes peel removed and grated .
2 tbsp of oil
2 tsp of butter
1 tsp of black mustard seeds
1 tsp of cumin seeds
Some curry leaves

Method
In a large pan, heat the oil on medium to high heat and braise your onions and whole spices ( the chili as well) until golden brown .
Next, add your tomato and garlic and braise for a few minutes .
Next, add all your spices, and salt and cook for a minute … Now slowly braise the curry sauce for 20 minutes adding a tiny bit of water when needed and stirring occasionally, adding the butter at the end of this cooking time.
In the meantime boil your eggs for 5 minutes in boiling water . Remove , cool, peel and cut in half .
Transfer to curry sauce and switch off the heat. Garnish with some fresh coriander and serve .
I did not add any vinegar or sugar etc. Because I serve the egg curry with a onion and tomato sambal .
Delicious .
