How to make masala for egg curry
Eggs- boiled eggs are used in this recipe. But I have a recipe where eggs are added as drop egg curry.
Onions & Tomatoes - onions adds sweetness to the curry. the sugar from the onions is cooked with tomatoes to create a masala which for the base for the curry.
Ginger Garlic Paste- ginger and garlic adds the aroma for the dish also it helps with the digestion and has anti inflammatory properties.
Milk - milk is entirely optional, but it adds a nice creamy texture. check my egg roast for making egg curry without milk.
