Hard-boiled eggs cooked in a smooth, creamy sauce make up the delicious curry dish known as egg butter masala.
There is nothing like the mix of boiled eggs, butter, and creamy gravy.
You make the sauce ahead and store in the fridge for 3-4 days. On the day of serving, simply reheat until bubbling and then add the eggs.
