Updated 18 April 2020 – This recipe is a “egg curry with Indian spices” or also called as “egg masala curry” and can be made into a “dry curry with less gravy if needed” by adding less coconut milk or water while cooking.
It can also be made as a gravy curry with more coconut milk + water.
If you make the gravy method you can have it with rice. If you make it the dry method you can have it with bread or some nice naan/chappatis or even appams (south indian rice bread). In south india there is a variation to this recipe and its called “mota curry”
