Butter Egg Masala


Butter Egg Masala 




Out of ideas for breakfast/ dinner?! Try this luscious and delicious butter egg masala and Thank me later! It’s so easy to prepare, it’s like my go to curry when I am out of ideas and other ingredients 😁 

The steps are pretty much like a rich and India’s own Butter Chicken Masala (psst, my butter chicken parcels are always a hit! Try it out, and let me know how it goes!)

What I like about this recipe is that all those veggies are just roughly chopped, as they are anyways going to be made into a paste, so not precision chopping required. It’s all so quick and easy! Once the gravy is done, and in the your cream and crack in your eggs ( or add in your hard boiled eggs, that are slightly slit on the sides and fried in some turmeric, chilli powder and salt, if that’s how you like it, I like mine just cracked into the butter masala) and voila! Your Butter Egg Masala is ready! It’s that easy! 😍😋

Pair it hot with some chappati so, poori, bhatura etc and enjoy!!
