Curry Ingredients- 15 boiled eggs
- 2 onions (medium-sized)

- A pinch of salt
- A splash of vinegar (for boiling eggs)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Roasted Egg Curry, are you excited to try this unique flavor? Let me guide you through making this chewy and delicious roasted egg curry. It’s easy for anyone to follow!
Step 2
First, let’s prepare the star of our curry: the eggs. Place 15 eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Add about 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of vinegar to the water; this helps the eggshells peel easily and prevents cracking while boiling. Bring the water to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium heat and simmer for about 10-12 minutes. Once boiled, rinse the eggs under cold water to cool them down. Carefully peel off all the shells and rinse the eggs gently. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
Step 3
Now, let’s prepare the onions that will add depth to our curry. Take 2 medium-sized onions, peel them, and wash them thoroughly. Slice the onions thinly into strips. Slicing them this way will allow them to cook down nicely and become tender in the curry, enhancing the flavor. Using more onions will deepen the sweetness and richness of the curry, so feel free to use them generously.
Step 4
It’s time to roast the eggs! Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Place the boiled eggs in the pan and roll them around, ensuring all sides are browned to a beautiful golden-brown color. Roasting the eggs this way gives them a slightly chewy exterior while keeping the inside soft, which creates a fantastic contrast with the curry sauce.
Step 5
In the same pan where you roasted the eggs, add all the sliced onions. Sauté them along with the eggs until the onions turn translucent and release their sweet aroma. Cook over medium-low heat until the onions are soft and fragrant. Thoroughly sautéing the onions is key to developing the sweetness and umami of the curry. Be mindful of the heat to prevent the eggs from burning.
Step 6
Now, let’s make the delicious curry sauce. Pour enough water into the pan to generously cover the eggs and onions (approximately 500-600ml for 15 eggs). Once the water comes to a boil, add the curry powder. Sifting the curry powder through a sieve will help it dissolve smoothly without lumps. Stir continuously with a spatula or ladle to prevent clumping. Simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until you reach your desired consistency. You can refer to the water measurement on the curry powder packet for guidance.
Step 7
To further enrich the curry’s flavor, we’ll add red pepper flakes. (Optional) Add 1 tablespoon of red pepper flakes according to your preference. If you enjoy a spicier kick, feel free to add a little more. Stir well after adding the flakes to ensure the flavors meld together with the eggs and curry. Let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes over medium-low heat, allowing the ingredients to absorb the seasoning. Taste the curry and add a pinch of salt if needed.
Step 8
Voila! Your appetizing Roasted Egg Curry is ready. The delightful combination of chewy roasted eggs and rich, smooth curry sauce is sure to make you finish your rice in no time.
Step 9
Serve the finished Roasted Egg Curry generously in a bowl. Using a knife, cut the roasted eggs in half. This makes it easier for the curry sauce to penetrate the eggs, making them even more flavorful. Serve over warm rice for a satisfying meal. This is a highly recommended special dish that the whole family can enjoy!
