Egg masala fry is a simple and quick egg curry recipe to be served with chapati mainly and is a popular egg masala in Hyderabadi style. This is one of the best and easiest forms of egg recipe made with just onions and eggs and no other ingredients are required to make the egg curry.
This side dish is not that suitable with rice but very much a good accompaniment with chapati and hope my viewers find this recipe as a perfect hyderabadi style of making egg curry.
Basic spices and herbs are enough to make this wonderful egg masala.
In hyderabad, this form of egg masala is termed as anda khagina or khageena where eggs are not completely scrambled and are broken directly into the masala and cooked without scrambling the eggs...
This version of egg recipe is a very common egg masala fry made with raw eggs and onions and is usually made as a breakfast recipe to be served with chapati.
The recipe can be cooked in just a couple of minutes and almost tastes like fried form of eggs but in fried eggs we use boiled eggs and here we make use of raw eggs that are finely cooked in sauteed onions.
This way of cooking onions and eggs gives a delicious taste to the curry and is a dry form of curry suitable to be eaten with roti, phulka or paratha.
Eggs are basically used to make quick recipes and are commonly used to make breakfast recipes and I hope to make more egg recipes that are suitable for kids breakfasts or for their lunch box recipes.
Eggs are the best way to make quick and easy recipes that are very instant and quite filling if they are used in making sandwiches or used to make stuffed egg paratha.
