Ingredients

Onion1 large
Garlic4 cloves
Ginger1 tbsp
Tomato1 can (14.5 oz)
Turmeric0.5 tsp
Cumin1 tsp
Cilantro2 tbsp

Method

1

Hard-boil eggs in salted water for 10–12 minutes until fully cooked. Transfer to ice water, cool completely, then peel and set aside.

2

Heat coconut oil in a large pot or skillet over medium heat. Add diced onion and sauté until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.

3

Stir in minced garlic and grated ginger; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

4

Add garam masala, turmeric, cumin, and red curry paste (if using). Stir constantly for 1 minute to bloom the spices.

5

Pour in crushed canned tomatoes, coconut milk, and vegetable broth. Stir well to combine and bring to a gentle simmer.

6

Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and flavors meld.

7

Gently add peeled hard-boiled eggs and simmer for 5 minutes to warm through and absorb flavors. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

8

Squeeze fresh lime juice over the curry and garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve warm over basmati rice, with rice noodles, or alongside naan or pita bread.
