Egg Potato Curry

I got this yummy,mind blowing recipe from the famous culinary author Mrs.K.M Mathew.

Egg Masala

This was my mom's usual curry on most of our breakfasts, especially with appam,pathiri or idiyappam ....We,children  liked this curry very much because of its less spice level and more gravy in it..When I was a school going girl, with any bread or rice I always wanted more gravy ,that is above the level of the main dish in the plate. So my mom had no other choice, grind coconut with most of the curries made at home..This egg masala is also one among them and I like it so much.

Method :
