egg curry
Subcontinental boiled protein
Egg curry is a South Asian dish of hard-boiled eggs simmered in a spiced sauce, typically made with tomatoes, onions, and aromatics like ginger, garlic, and turmeric.
The eggs are often fried briefly before being added to the curry, giving them a slightly crisp exterior.
It's a protein-rich vegetarian staple across India, Bangladesh, and neighboring regions: We made egg curry for dinner.
