Creamy Egg Curry Recipe
Punjabi Egg Curry is usually very spicy. But I made this Creamy Egg Curry Recipe as my kiddos do not eat very spicy food. My younger grandson has spicy but not Arian…he will not touch it if it is spicy. This is a great recipe for a special weekend dinner. Serve it with Steamed Rice or Laccha Paratha and you are sorted for your meal.
Easy Creamy Egg Curry Recipe
This Creamy Egg Curry Recipe is an easy and regular curry made with ginger-garlic, onion and tomato gravy. Subsequently, I added creamy yoghurt and fresh cream to make it extra special for my babies. Next, add Kasuri methi for added flavour and finally, fry the eggs. In Andhra egg curry usually, the eggs are fried. The advantage of this method is that the eggs don’t crumble and disintegrate. Of course, the taste is enhanced as well
