Egg Kurma Recipe – Muttai Kurma Recipe

January 10, 2018 By Radhika 4 Comments

egg kurma recipe
Egg kurma recipe. This egg kurma makes a sumptuous side dish to chapathis, parottas and also goes well with pulaos and biryanis. This muttai kurma is mildly spiced and I have made this the easy way in a pressure cooker.

I always stock up on hard boiled eggs in the refrigerator so that I can rustle up an easy sandwich or just serve them plain with freshly cracked pepper and salt for breakfast.

So whenever I have the last of 2 or 3 hardboiled eggs left out, it ends up as egg kurma for dinner or to pack in the lunch box along with chapathis for the kids.

And making them in the pressure cooker, is really a clean and time saving method in the mornings, when I have to finish packing lunch boxes and leave home by 8 for work.

You can make whatever kurma that you wish using the same method or you can use this Mixed Vegetable Kurma and make it in the pressure cooker.

You will also like this 15 mins Paneer Butter Masala that is made in the pressure cooker which is equally delicious like the traditional one when served with chapathis.
