Ingredients

MAINS: I usually portion one and half egg per person, 3 clovesof garlic,small
piece of ginger, 2 medium potatoes, 1 tomato,curry spices,
quarter of a diced onion, salt to taste and fresh chilli pep

Preparation

1
PREPARATION: Mince the garlic, ginger and chilli together till it becomes a paste.
2
Cut the potatoes into bite size pieces. Dice the onion, tomatoes and boil the eggs.
3
Once egg is done peel and put aside. I usually boil the eggs till they are fully cooked for this recipe.
4
COOKING: Heat oil in a shallow fry pan on medium high heat.
5
Gently with a fork ,make few small holes in the egg
6
Make sure you don’t break the eggs.
7
Once oil is nice and hot, gently place the eggs in the pan and brown the outside of the egg.
8
The purpose for this is to make the eggs crispy on the outside.
9
Take the eggs out of the fry pan and add the ginger, garlic, chilli paste and sauté It till it’s nice and golden.
10
Add the potatoes and curry spices.
11
Stir well and cook for 10 minutes stirring occasionally.
12
By this time the potatoes will be nearly done. If for some reason it’s taking longer for the potatoes to cook or if the potatoes are sticking to the bottom of the pan add a little water . Water will help to loosen the stickiness
13
Cook till potatoes are done.
14
The final process to finish this dish is by adding the eggs, tomatoes and a cup of water.
15
Simmer for 10 minutes .By this time everything in pan will be happy and so will you.
16
I usually cut the eggs in half before serving and gently pour some of the sauce on the yolk.
