Shahi Egg Masala

Being a working women, finding a balance between work life and personal life is always challenging!!! Back from work, another day starts for me, kids, house chores and biggest task being the dinner prep!

We always prefer a chapati/phulkas for dinner, and making a different curry each day to make the boring phulkas interesting is another mountain to be climbed. Well you can’t prepare meats daily, eggs are life saviours!

I found this prefect recipe of egg masala after trying hands on many recipes.

Follow the recipe exactly, I’m sure you will definitely include this in your regular menu. And this recipe is so versatile,you can replace egg with white beans, rajma or paneer.

The recipe is typically a North Indian style curry with a creamy thick gravy, served with salad on side will make your dinner most appetising!
