One busy day i dint get time to boil the eggs. As you know boiling eggs takes minimum 10 mins, then again taking the shells out of it will take 5 more mins, then again making a gravy 10 mins. So just tot of making egg poached gravy. It took less than 15 mins and it was tasty too. So simple and tasty. For those of you who don't have time to boil the eggs can follow this recipe.


You will need :

Step 1:

Finely chop onions, tomatoes and green chillies and keep it aside.

Step 2:

Heat oil in a pan and add mustard seeds and then the cumin seeds. Now add curry leaves, onions and green chillies and saute it till it turns light golden brown color.

Step 3:

Now add the ginger garlic paste and saute it for a min and then add tomatoes to it and close the lid for 3 mins. Then add red chilli powder and coriander powder. Saute it for 2 mins.

Step 4:

Add water , amchoor powder and salt to this and allow it to boil just for a min.

Hint:

For additional taste you can add one raw in the gravy egg at this time and stir it well. Then do the next step. So that you will have some scrambled egg also in the gravy.

Step 5:

Now open the eggs one by one and pour it directly on the gravy carefully. Do not stir it after adding the eggs. Close it with a lid for 10 mins keeping the flame on medium heat.


After 10 mins just check whether the egg is fully cooked inside. If not allow it to boil for few more mins. Now add the coconut milk and switch off the heat. Add ½ tsp lemon juice on top of it and serve it with chapathi, poori.



You can make this gravy using boiled eggs too..

If you like a dry egg poached gravy just avoid adding the coconut milk and add less amount of water. Can add scrambled eggs with this gravy to get extra taste and extra richness..

If you don't like whole poached eggs, you can stir the egg gravy mixture after pouring the egg on the gravy. Very simple right.
