We both are big egg fans. We can take them in any form(except for uncooked versions), anytime. I just cannot have the same dish each time, so I keep collecting all possible recipes for egg. But I have few which I like to cook again and again. If they are simple to make, I love them more as it gives me some time to relax on weekdays.
This is a recipe which my sister-in-law R gave me. We were having our usual voice chatting and she said she had prepared stuffed eggs. She sent me the recipe and ever since I tried it, I have made it many times. I somehow forgot to post it here.
Those who do not like or do not wish to eat egg yolks, can discard them and just use other stuffing. It tastes great any way. Change the stuffing according to your choice.
Ingredients: 4 boiled eggs 1/4 cups onion 1/4 cups tomato 2-3 strands coriander leaves 1/2 tea spn garam masala 1/4 tea spn chili powder A pinch turmeric Oil Salt
Method: Peel the eggs. Cut them into half. Take out the yolks, taking care not to break the white part. Heat oil and add onions. When they turn translucent, add tomatoes, salt. Cook for a minute. Add all other masalas , crushed egg yolks, finely chopped coriander and mix well. While serving, stuff the white parts with the above stuffing and serve.
Serves : 2-3 Preparation time : 20mins
I have no idea where this name “ alu corn sagu ” was originated. Alu being Hindi word for potato, Sagu being Kannada word for a spicy curry, this looks like one fusion dish. This recipe is from a Kannada magazine. I love potatoes, corns and sagus . So I had to try this. This turned out to be a very tasty, spicy-sweet dish which can be served with chapathis or puris .
Ingredients: 1 cup cooked corn 1 cup boiled, peeled and chopped potatoes 1/2 cup tomato puree (cook tomatoes in boiling water for 2-3 mins, peel and grind) 1/2 cup onion 2 tbl spn fresh/frozen coconut 3-4 red chilies 1/4 cup chopped tomato 1 cardamom 1/2 tea spn chopped garlic 2 cloves 1″ cinnamon 1/2 tea spn coriander powder A pinch turmeric 1/2 tea spn cumin seeds Oil Salt
Method: Heat oil, fry garlic, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, chilies, turmeric, coriander powder, onion till onions turn brownish. Add the coconut, fry for few minutes and grind all together. Heat oil and add cumin seeds. Add the paste, fry till a nice aroma comes out. Add tomatoes, fry for a minute. Add corn, potatoes, tomato puree, salt. Cook for few minutes. Serve hot.
