DIRECTIONS TO MAKE FRAGRANT EGG CURRY:
Step 1
Place the chopped onion, grated ginger, and crushed garlic in a food processor. Process until they form a paste.
Step 2
Heat the oil in a heavy-based saucepan. Add the paste and cook over low heat for 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Add the curry powder, ground turmeric, cinnamon stick, and fresh curry leaves to the saucepan. Cook for 1 minute, stirring to release the flavors.
Step 4
Pour in the diced tomatoes and 500ml (2 cups) of water. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 15 minutes.
Step 5
Shell the hard-boiled eggs and cut them in half. Add the eggs, red lentils, and peas to the saucepan. If the mixture is too thick, you can add an extra 125ml (1/2 cup) of water. Cook over low heat for 15 minutes or until the lentils are soft.
Step 6
Stir in the chopped fresh coriander.
Step 7
Serve the curry with cooked rice.
