My third day for cooking with alphabets series is with the letter ‘M’..I was thinking of so many recipes using this letter, but I didn’t have time to cook anything..But luckily I had a post which is pending in my drafts for a while..i checked it and the name starts with the letter M.

If you ever have parota from any road side shop they will serve it with chicken salna or mutta salna..Both are so delicious..This makes a perfect sidedish for roti, parota, dosa or idli..I hope you will love it and tell me how it turned out..I am sending this recipe to Blogging Marathan Day 3 with the theme ‘Cooking with Alphabets’.

Onion – 1 chopped
Tomato – 1 chopped
Eggs – 3
Green Chilli – 2

Curry leaves – 1 spring
Chilli powder – 1 tsp
Coriander powder / Malli podi – 1 tblspn
Turmeric powder / Manjal podi – 1/2 tsp

Add in onions, curry leaves  and cook for 3 mins. Throw in chilli powder and coriander powder . Mix well.
Add in tomatoes and cook till they turn mushy. Add in coconut and saute for 5 mins till they turn golden.
Remove them and make into a fine puree and set aside.
Now add onions, tomatoes and green chilli in a pan. Add water and salt and sugar and cover and cook till they are cooked.
Add in the ground masala and mix well. Cook till oil separates.
Add in the well beaten egg slowly and mix well. Cover and cook for 5 mins.

    Very similar to theeyal- cinnamon would give another flavour. Curry looks rich and inviting.

    I learn so much when I visit here! I've never seen curry leaves before. I love coconut so that was fun to see go into the dish. I also love eggs so I was intrigued by that addition. It looks so so delicious!

    Tried this curry today. The taste was OK..
    But the salna turned watery after I added the eggs. Eggs drank away all the masala.

    What could have been wrong?
    Help fix this
