Egg and Potato Curry image

North Indian in origin, I was very grateful to have found this recipe. It is very similar to what was served to us by our Bengali neighbors years ago! Serve hot with a side of thickly sliced bread.

Time 55m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
2 onions, peeled and quartered
3 tomatoes, quartered
2 small green chile peppers
2 teaspoons garlic paste
2 teaspoons ginger paste
2 teaspoons ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garam masala
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
salt to taste
2 cups water
1 large potato - cooked, peeled, and cut into 1-inch cubes
6 hard-cooked eggs, quartered
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onions; cook and stir until onion pieces are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden, about 10 minutes more.
  • Remove pan from heat and set it aside. Transfer cooked onions to the bowl of a food processor; grind onions, tomatoes, and green chiles into a smooth paste.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add onion mixture carefully, as it may spatter. Cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in garlic paste, ginger paste, coriander, cumin, garam masala, turmeric, cayenne pepper, and salt. Cook and stir until the oil begins to separate from the mixture, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour water into skillet and bring sauce to a boil. Add cubed potatoes. Gently stir in the eggs. Reduce heat to low and simmer until sauce has thickened slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Garnish with cilantro before serving.
