Green Egg Curry

Sonny’s exam is over and I’m relieved. Waiting for the results and making some dishes on his request. This is one of them, Green Egg Curry. It is a delicious egg curry with coriander and green chili paste. Tastes quite different from the regular egg curry and we loved the flavour of coriander and green chilies with eggs. This should be served with steamed rice for the most awesome experience. You can make this curry with potatoes too if you want.

Masala Egg Kosha

It was Republic Day, a National Holiday, drizzling since the night before, a cold and overcast day in the National Capital. Nobody were out of their houses unless absolutely necessary. Nothing much to do except listening to the patriotic songs being played on the loudspeakers and watching the parade on tv. This kind of weather always prompts something ‘eggilicious’ in my mind, a dish that’s not too elaborate, a bit spicy to infuse a zing to the palate and pep up the gloominess around.
