Method

  1. 1 Boil the eggs for 9 minutes, peel them, then toss them with turmeric powder and salt.
  2. 2 Fry the eggs in mustard oil for 3 minutes until the outside is golden brown and pitted; this pitting helps the sauce adhere to the egg.
  3. 3 Fry the halved potatoes in the oil for 6 minutes until golden brown around the edges.
  4. 4 Sauté bay leaves, onions, and ginger for 8 minutes, then add tomatoes and chili powder and cook for 6 minutes.
  5. 5 Add 300 ml of water, cook the potatoes for 12 minutes, then add the eggs during the last 5 minutes and sprinkle with garam masala.
