This is an egg curry recipe. This is a restaurant style version of egg curry recipe which can be easily prepared at home. Egg curry is also known as anda curry. Making it restaurant style requires little more spices and time but you can also make it quick by adding less oil and chillies. Egg curry is my comfort food and I need to make this at my home every now and then. Also because of this lockdown during corona virus we are not able to go to the restaurants or order takeaways easily so making this restaurant style egg curry is perfect.
I have prepared few more recipes like egg manchurian, eggless banana bread and egg muffins. Check them out.
