Kerala Mutta Roast

Method

1. 1Heat coconut oil, fry curry leaves and green chillies, then add onions.
2. 2Brown onions deep brown — 12 minutes, this is most of the flavour.
3. 3Add ginger-garlic, tomatoes, turmeric, chilli powder, pepper and salt; cook till oil separates.
4. 4Place halved eggs cut-side down into the masala, spoon over the gravy for 4 minutes.
5. 5Flip eggs gently, cook 3 more minutes; the masala should hug each half.
6. 6Finish with garam masala and a sprinkle of fresh curry leaves; the dish is dry, dark and intense.
