Let's get the funda of a delicious Egg Kasha.

Method

Take a pan. Add some water and 1/2 tsp salt. Add the eggs one by one and bring it to boil for 10-15 mins. We need hard boiled eggs. Switch off the flame and transfer the eggs into ice chilled water. It helps to peel the eggs easily. Now slit slightly the eggs from all sides.


In a blender, take the coriander leaves, garlic, ginger and green chillies. Add a little water and grind it to a fine paste. Keep aside.


Take a pan. Heat oil. Add 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, 1/3 tsp kashmiri red chilli powder and some salt. Mix well. Add the boiled eggs and fry till light golden brown. Take these out and keep aside. Add the dry red chilli and cumin seeds to the remaining oil. Once it starts to crackle, add the chopped onion and fry till golden brown. Now add the grinded paste and cook till the raw smell goes away. Now add the tomatoes and salt and sugar. Once the tomatoes are nice and soft, add the turmeric powder, kashmiri red chilli powder, cumin-coriander powder and 1/2 tsp garam masala powder. Add a little warm water and cook till the oil comes out from the masala.
