This one took us by surprise – get thee to an egg curry!
Ingredients:

And then:
- Heat oil in a pan and splutter mustard seeds
- Add sliced onion, fennel seeds and curry leaves.
- Cook with the pan covered and stir in between till onion turns brown in colour (it takes approx 15-20 min for this to happen but it’s worth the wait!)
- Add sliced tomato and cook till tomato becomes soft.
- Add ginger garlic paste and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add red chilli, Kashmiri chilli, turmeric, coriander, garam masala and cook for 2-3 min.
