Egg Kurma | Muttai Kurma Recipe

Egg Kurma is a spicy and finger licking delicious gravy, made with boiled eggs and coconut paste. This is also a lazy man Kurma for those who don’t want to make any separate side dish. Whenever I run out off vegetables, I directly get into making this kurma.

Egg Kurma can be made in different ways. Either you can use the boiled eggs or even you can directly drop the eggs while Kurma is boiling (you get a half boiled kind of egg in this method). This Kurma can be prepared in 15 to 20 minutes. With boiled eggs, we can prepare so many dishes. This kurma very well pairs with Rice, Roti, Chappati, Appam, Idiyappam, and parotta. Today we are going to see how to prepare this finger licking recipe.
