Egg Potato Curry

I got this yummy,mind blowing recipe from the famous culinary author Mrs.K.M Mathew. Yesterday while I was searching for an egg recipe over the internet, I got stuck in this creamy egg curry with potatoes. The best part came in my mind is that there is no need to cut that much of onion as of a normal egg roast. 
Actually is it an egg curry with potatoes or a potato curry with eggs??????

Ingredients :

  1. Eggs : 3
  2. Potatoes(cubed into small pieces ): 2 or 3 small
  3. Onion(chopped) : 1
  4. Ginger(sliced) : 1 tsp
  5. Garlic (sliced) 1 tsp
  6. Green Chillies(slitted) : 2
  7. Red Chilly Powder : 4/3 tsp
  8. Coriander Powder : 1.5 tsp
  9. Turmeric Powder : 1/4 tsp
  10. Pepper powder : 1/4 tsp
  11. Cardamom pods(Elakka) : 2
  12. Cinnamon : 2 small pieces
  13. Cloves : 1
  14. Thin Coconut Milk : 3/4 cup
  15. Thick coconut milk : 1/4 cup
  16. Vinegar : 1/2 tsp
  17. Salt
  18. Coconut Oil 
For tempering :: 


  1. Coconut Oil: 1/2 tsp
  2. Ghee : 1/2 tsp
  3. Mustard seeds : 1/2 tsp
  4. Pearl Onions : 3-4(chopped)
  5. Curry Leaves : 1-2 springs


Method :

  • Hard boil the eggs and keep aside.
  • Grind the ingredients from 8-14 into a smooth paste.
  • Mix vinegar and salt with the thin coconut milk.
  • Heat oil in a pan and saute onions,ginger,garlic and green chillies till the onions become transluscent.
  • Add the masala paste and saute for 1-2 minutes.
  • Now add the thin coconut milk and bring to boil 
  • Add the cubed potato pieces , cover and cook in medium flame.
  • When the gravy reduces,and the potatoes are cooked well add the thick coconut milk and bring to a slight boil.
  • Now add the boiled eggs,combine well with the masala and switch off the flame
  • Heat oil and ghee in another pan and splutter mustard seeds.
  • Add the chopped pearl onions and curry leaves and fry well
  • Pour it into the curry and close it till serving.
