I can never stress enough how quick and simple meals – like this Egg and Potato Curry are extremely important in my home. Though we love our slow-cooking delicacies over the weekends, we often sit down to dinner during the week with little less than a desire for good food – with no energy whatsoever to deal with its creation. Call me crazy but even scramble eggs like this Masala Egg Bhurji can be made to look elegant and fill your heart and tummy after a long tiring day. I’m somehow very uncomfortable with the fact of showing off simple food just the way it is. When Hubby Dear and Little Dudesit down each evening to a table laden with the best of flavours on a platter, they often think that I’ve slaved over the hot stove for hours. I always smile a cunning smile, because even though my food looks and tastes like it’s been simmering for hours, only my stove knows how long it’s actually been running to bring our dinner from pot to plate. I always pat myself on the back with the thought of having made a splendid meal that looks like I’ve spent half my life over. But only I know how much I resent having to actually make a slow-cooked meal from scratch in the middle of the week! I can’t even remember the last time I made my own chicken stock! I always begin my week by making sure I have a bunch of hard-boiled eggs waiting patiently for me in the fridge. They’ve been a saviour so many times and always come in handy – be it for breakfast, and a quick healthy snack or ready to be jazzed up at dinner time. A couple of days ago, when we were having our usual “something different for dinner” mood swing, it only seemed reasonable to make something out of the ordinary – and what could be more ordinary than eggs? Elegant, yes. Simple, definitely! If you enjoyed this recipe, then you will surely love my Simple Egg Curry and Boiled Egg Sambal recipe as well.
