Shahi egg curry

Shahi Egg Curry is another recipe from the Mughal cuisine. The curry is tasty, tangy, spicy and full of flavours. All this because the boiled eggs are cooked off in an onion-tomato cashew nut gravy, which is lip-smacking and creamy.
Kasuri methi (dry fenugreek leaves) added at the end lifts up the flavours. Simple everyday spices are added in the right amount to make this egg curry mouthwatering.
This is not only easy to make but is super delicious and can be served as a main dish, side dish or for breakfast with hot flaky parathas.
