Simple egg roast

This is a delicious and simple to make egg roast. For those who hate to have the boiled eggs, this is a tasty twist to the regular and boring boiled eggs. And this is my favourite way of having them too.

Ingredients

2 hard boiled eggs

Generous amount of finely chopped onion

2 green chillies (slit opened)

3 garlic cloves (finely chopped)

2 ts rasam powder (add more if needed)

1 ts pepper powder (optional)

Few curry leaves
Generous amount of oil

Preparation

Making hard boiled eggs

- Place eggs in a small pot. (If you are boiling large number of eggs, make sure to put them in a single layer in the pot)

- Add enough cold water to the pot so that the eggs are covered completely with water.

- Add in a pinch of salt.

- Bring the water to a boil on a medium flame.

- Once it reaches boiling point, switch off stove and cover the pot.

- Let it sit covered for about 15 minutes.

- Once the eggs are cool enough to handle, crack and peel the shells.

Making egg roast

- Add rasam powder to the above and give a quick toss. Be careful not to burn the spice powder.

- Immediately add in the cut boiled eggs. Roast them in high flame for a few minutes until the eggs turn slightly brownish and roasted.
