Egg Keema


Egg keema is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that combines ground or minced eggs with aromatic spices and vegetables. Here’s a simple recipe for making egg keema:

Ingredients:

  • 6 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons oil or ghee
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 2-3 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust according to your spice preference)
  • 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon coriander powder
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Hard boil the eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes. Once done, remove the eggs from the hot water, cool them down under cold water, peel and chop them roughly.
  2. Heat oil or ghee in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.
  3. Add the chopped onions to the skillet and sauté until they turn golden brown.
  4. Add the ginger-garlic paste and chopped green chilies to the skillet. Sauté for a minute until the raw smell disappears.
  5. Add the chopped tomatoes to the skillet and cook until they turn soft and mushy.
  6. Once the tomatoes are cooked, add the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Mix well and cook for another couple of minutes.
  7. Add the chopped boiled eggs to the skillet and mix them with the masala mixture. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, allowing the flavors to blend well.
  8. Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves before serving.
  9. Serve the egg keema hot with rice, roti, or bread.
