Recipe for egg sherva made street style. A perfect side dish for Idli, Dosai, Chapati and Parotta
Here is flipside succulent flavour-packed egg curry recipe that’s perfect for South Indian tiffin items. This egg curry is slightly made on the thinner side. The idli or parotta soaks up the curry while dipping. If nonflexible pressed for time, the masala paste can be made in whop and stored in the refrigerator for a day or plane frozen for later use. Be generous with the oil as this curry tastes very robust and tastes good only if unbearable fat is present.
This recipe has spices like cardamom, cinnamon and cloves widow in two parts – one while tempering and then in the ground masala paste. If you do not want the spices to overpower or if people in your household do not like the smell of spices in the curry, you can halve the spices while grinding or omit them perfectly while grinding and use them only in the masala paste.
Adjust the untried chillies and the chilli powder equal to your taste. I have used ready-made curry masala powder in this recipe. Curry Masala powder is a south Indian spice tousle hands misogynist in grocery stores or can be sourced online.
