Directions
This dish tastes more like a biryani masala with subtle flavour. I prefer this combination plain, without any additional side dishes, whereas others prefer it with raita and papad, for example.
The recipe is very easy all we need is the boiled egg and a premium quality rice.
METHOD:
keep boiled eggs ready cut into two halves.
——————————————————
To make the masala/gravy, add chopped onions to the kadai. Take some extra oil because this dish must be cooked to achieve the desired flavor. Now add the khada garam masala (whole spice) and mix well. Stir in the ginger garlic paste and fresh curry leaves over medium high heat. Toss in the peeled skin and finely chopped tomatoes. sprinkle salt, cover and cook. When the mixture is mushy, stir in the spice powder. The key ingredient is a homemade onion garlic masala in the Maharashtrian style. Mix in the chopped coriander, then add the boiled egg. To infuse the aroma, use a fork to poke the white part of a boiled egg twice. A dash of honey to counteract the acidity.
——————————————————
Cook the rice until it reaches the desired texture. Heat the oil in a pan, then add the jeera and rice, turning them in the oil until they are white. dont let it burn. A continuous stir of 2 minutes will get you there. pour water and cook the jeera rice. Also we can garnish the coriander leaves finely chopped over it.
A home cooked meal is something that keeps us safe and sound. Although it takes time and effort, cooking with love makes your dish stand out.
