Egg curry
​Ingredients
8 hard-boiled eggs
1 tbsp mustard seed
2 onions
400 g can of tomatoes
2 tbsp oil
1 large red pepper
2 cm ginger
1 elephant clove garlic
or 3 toes​1 tsp garam masala
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp katoembar
1 tsp tumeric
5 leaves curry leaves
2 leaves djoeroek poeroet (lemon leaf)
Preparation
First;
Grate ginger and garlic. Coarsely chop red pepper, cut eggs in half.
​
Pan with oil on high heat and when it is hot, add mustard seeds and quickly put the lid on! The seed will pop, so lower the heat a bit!
​
When it has calmed down, add the onion and chili powder, stir and fry until translucent.
Then fry/lightly fry the garlic, ginger, ketembar, turmeric on medium heat.
Simmer briefly and then heat high and add the tomatoes.
When it boils, add salt and djoeroek poeroet.
​
Stir and let it boil, it should be smooth, if it reduces too thin, add thick (boiling/hot) water. But it needs to cook for about 5 minutes.
​
Add curry leaves and immerse half the eggs in the mixture.
​
Then let the flavor soak in for at least 10 minutes.
The dish can be made 1 day in advance because the flavor then absorbs well, but keep it cold because of the eggs!
