Kerala is said to be the most beautiful state in India. It’s located on the southwestern coast, further south than the famous Goa. The wonderful weather and endless coast-line defined the cuisine of Kerala full of coconut milk, curry leaves, and seafood. I am captivated by this cuisine and I enjoy learning and making Kerala dishes. This egg curry is traditionally served in Kerala for breakfast. It doesn’t take a lot of time to make, it boasts spiciness and freshness, and sweetness.
You should try it, it’s unbelievably delicious!
The recipe by a Kerala-born cook https://mydigitalverandah.com.
P.S. The recipe uses Kashmiri chili powder that is a powdered chili pepper that is relatively mild in heat but its main characteristic is a vibrant red coloring. You can buy it online. But if you haven’t simply mix powdered chili with powdered paprika in 1:1 ratio. It’s not perfect but will do.
