1 tsp salt
1 tsp coriander powder

METHOD -

Boil the Eggs: Start by boiling the eggs until they're hard-boiled. Once done, peel and set them aside.

Fry the Eggs: Cut the boiled eggs in half. Heat butter in a pan and lightly fry the egg halves on both sides until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Prepare the Masala Base: In the same pan, heat some oil. Add the chopped onions, tomatoes, and green chilies. Sauté for a few minutes until the onions turn translucent.

Add Spices: Add 2 tbsp of water to the pan, followed by the red chili powder, turmeric powder, salt, coriander powder, and black pepper powder. Stir well and cook for a couple of minutes until the masala becomes fragrant.

Add Fried Eggs: Place the fried egg halves into the pan, and gently mix them into the masala. Cover the pan and let it cook for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavours to meld together.

Garnish: Once cooked, garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Serve hot with roti, paratha, or rice for a delicious meal! Enjoy your flavourful Egg Masala!
