Directions
1
Boil the eggs until the yolks are still runny. Peel the eggs and set them aside.
2
Heat coconut oil in a kadhai or deep pan over medium heat.
3
Add black mustard seeds, fennel seeds, cardamom pods, and curry leaves to the hot oil. Allow them to splutter and release their aroma.
4
Stir in chopped garlic and green chilies. Sauté until the garlic is aromatic.
5
Add thinly sliced onions and cook until they caramelize, stirring occasionally.
6
Sprinkle red chili powder, turmeric powder, and coriander powder over the caramelized onions. Stir well to coat the onions with the spices.
7
Splash a bit of water to deglaze the pan and prevent the spices from burning.
8
Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until the oil starts to separate from the mixture.
9
Season the mixture with salt to taste. Pour in the coconut milk and let it simmer for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
10
Gently place the boiled eggs into the curry, ensuring they are coated with the flavorful sauce. Let it simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes.
11
Garnish the Coconut Egg Curry with fried curry leaves and sliced onions. Serve hot with Malabar Paratha or steamed rice.
