I really love curried eggs when i want something yummy but easy on a hot night (spicy foods go well with steamy days). It saves cooking meat, boiling eggs can be done in the morning before the rest of the day happens

I reduced this to only make 2 eggs to serve as a side. I was expecting more of a curried style deviled egg, but that isn't what this recipe is at all. This was the first time to try something like this & we thought it was interesting. It definitly is full of flavor and has lots going on flavorwise. I served with baked chicken made with Nairobi Meat Rub, a simple baked potato, and Onion and Tomato Salad (Salata Bonjon-E-Rhumi-E-Piaz). Made for ZWT4.

    These eggs are GOOD! I didn't have cake flour and substituted unbleached all-purpose flour. I also used Bo-Kaap Cape Malay Curry Powder - South African Spice Mixture for the curry powder. This ones a keeper. Make for ZWT4

    I am not a curry lover, so I was worried about messing with my eggs which I love. So I served this in a little side dish on the side, I used my own curry recipe and I liked the sauce on my eggs, as long as I went lightly. Will make again, but still keep the sauce on the side. Made for ZWT4.

    Interesting egg recipe. The flavors work very well together. I used Madras Curry Powder for the curry powder in this recipe and it was excellent. I garnished the eggs with some fresh cilantro. Perfect! Thanx for a great new egg recipe!
