Ingredients: Eggs 8 Nos
Large Onions: 5 Nos. chopped lengthwise, thin.
Garlic: Large cloves: 5 Nos (The Chinese variety which are large); finely chopped.
Ginger: 2 inch piece. Finely chopped.
Red chillies: Long ones 10 nos.
Red Chilly powder (2 teaspoons)
Black pepper powder: Half teaspoon.
Turmeric powder (Quarter teaspoon)
Coriander powder (One teaspoon)
Green Chillies (Long variety optional 5 Nos) split to into two pieces length wise
Cinnamon (4-5 one inch pieces).
Curry leaves (Fresh a handful).
Oil and salt.
Method: Boil the eggs hard and peel the shell, make some small incisions on them length wise with a knife (for the masala to go in) . Heat some oil (5 teaspoons) in a wok and fry the eggs for a couple of minutes so that they shrink a bit and gives some brown colour. Keep the eggs apart. Now, add 5 tsp more oil and heat slowly and add the whole red chillies, turmeric, chilly powder, coriander powder, black pepper powder and cinnamon and stir so that they are golden brown (careful not to char...reduce the heat). Once they are golden brown, throw in the onions, green chillies (optional) garlic, ginger and curry leaves (plenty) and saute them till the onions are cooked. May want to sprinkle little water to make the stuff homogeneous and stir to cook the onions slightly brown. Add the salt to taste. It should be a bit oily and if oil is not enough, add more oil so that there is consistency. Now, add the eggs and mix the stuff well. Serve hot with any damn thing (Appam/porotta are the best).
