How to Make Quick Egg Curry

  1. Thinly slice the peeled onion.
  2. Slit the green chilies lengthwise.
  3. Heat oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Add the onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  4. Add the minced ginger, garlic, and chilies. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in the garam masala, turmeric powder, coriander powder, and cumin powder. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
  7. Add salt and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened to your desired consistency.
  8. Gently add the halved hard-boiled eggs to the gravy.
  9. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to heat the eggs through.
  10. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
  11. Serve hot with thin chapati or plain paratha.
