Cooking steps

  • Place the eggs in a saucepan and add enough water to cover them. Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the eggs simmer for 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat, drain the hot water and place the eggs in cold water. Peel the eggs and set aside.

  • Heat oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and cook until golden brown.

  • Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced green chilies. Saute for a minute until fragrant.

  • Add the diced tomatoes and cook until they become soft and mushy.

  • Lower the heat and add turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, red chili powder, garam masala, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to combine the spices with the onion-tomato mixture.

  • Gently add the peeled boiled eggs to the skillet and coat them evenly with the spiced tomato-onion mixture.

  • Cover the skillet and let the curry simmer for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

  • Garnish with fresh coriander leaves before serving.

  • Serve the spicy Indian egg curry with steamed rice or naan bread as a side dish.

Cooking a new dish
Starting to cook a new dish begins with selecting a recipe that matches your skill level and gathering all the necessary ingredients. Before diving in, read through the entire recipe to understand the steps and timing involved. Next, prepare your workspace by cleaning the countertops, organizing your tools, and setting out ingredients. Prepping the ingredients—such as washing, chopping, and measuring—is key to ensuring a smooth cooking process. As you cook, follow the recipe step by step, taking your time and tasting along the way to adjust flavors. Finally, serve the dish with care and enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Preparing your workspace correctly
Preparing your workspace involves starting with clean countertops, organizing your tools and equipment, and setting out all the necessary ingredients within reach. Arrange your tools, like knives, cutting boards, and measuring cups, close by for easy access, and pre-measure ingredients if possible to save time during cooking. It's helpful to have a trash bowl for food scraps to keep the area tidy. Ensure your workspace is well-lit and free of unnecessary items to maximize space. If your recipe requires it, preheat the oven or pans while organizing your space. Having a clean and organized workspace makes the cooking process more efficient and enjoyable.

Preparing your ingredients in advance
Prepping ingredients, or "mise en place," involves getting everything ready before cooking. This includes washing and chopping vegetables, measuring out ingredients, and preparing items like garlic, onions, or meat as required by the recipe. You might also marinate, soften, or melt ingredients if needed. Once prepped, arrange everything in small bowls or containers for easy access during cooking. This preparation helps streamline the cooking process and ensures you can focus on cooking without interruptions.
