Creamy Egg Curry Recipe:

A creamy, tangy Egg curry that’s made in a jiffy and absolutely delicious to eat.

Egg curry is almost a staple food in my household and especially because he loves it I cook it very often. While the traditional spicy hot egg curry is a favourite during winters, this creamy curry with eggs is just perfect for a summer meal. It has a tangy soft texture that is light on the stomach and hence a perfect option for this season.

Today my house helps, both the cleaner and the cook called it off without any information and had their cell phones turned off. While I don’t mind them taking off but lack of information is frustrating, for first you keep waiting for them and by the time you give up it is really late and your stomach starts making wired sounds.  So, I needed a quick fix for my starving stomach and hence decided to make this recipe that took me less than half an hour to cook along with toasting the bread, another 10 minutes to click the pictures and even less to gulp it down in big bites.
