Coconut Jammy Anda Masala

ib: the labrador puppies i met all named after cheeses 🥺 I didn’t grow up eating a lot of eggs bc my dad’s allergic, so when my mom did make anda masala (a more punjabi-style one than my fusion one here), it was a treat 🍭 Coconut Jammy Anda Masala // INGREDIENTS // - 1/2 tbsp coconut oil - 1/2 tsp cumin seeds - 1/2 tsp fennel seeds - 4 cloves - 10 kadi patta (also called curry leaves or sweet neem leaves) - 5 garlic cloves, minced - 3/4 inch ginger, grated - 3 birds eye green chilies, finely chopped ( /-) - 1 small onion, finely chopped - 3 tbsp tomato paste - 1 large tomato, finely diced - 1/2 tsp turmeric - 2 tsp coriander powder - 1 to 2 tsp kashmiri red chili ( /-) - 1/2 tsp black pepper - Salt to taste - 2 cups full fat coconut milk - 1/2 tsp garam masala - Handful of kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves), crushed between palms - 4 pasture raised eggs // RECIPE // 1️⃣ Heat up coconut oil, then add cumin, fennel, & cloves. Once they start wiggling around, quickly & carefully add kadi patta (there will be spluttering so don’t stand too close!) Toast around for 30 sec. 2️⃣ Add garlic, ginger, chilies, and onion. Sauté until onions are a bit translucent. 3️⃣ Add tomato paste & cook for 3-4min to caramelize - the color will go from bright red to deep dull red. 4️⃣ Add tomatoes, turmeric, coriander, red chili powder, black pep, & salt. Cook until tomatoes are mushy. 5️⃣ Add coconut milk, mix well, & raise the heat if needed to maintain a slight simmer. Simmer for 3-4min. 6️⃣ Add garam masala, kasuri methi, & mix well for a minute. Taste for salt then turn off heat. 7️⃣ Add the eight halves of your eggs. Garnish with a sprinkle of crushed kasuri methi. Jammy Eggs: 1️⃣ Bring a saucepan with enough water to cover the eggs to a vigorous boil. 2️⃣ Using a slotted spoon, lower in your eggs. 3️⃣ Immediately start a timer for 6min 30 sec (I personally prefer than exactly 6min eggs, but you can try both!). Maintain a boil. 4️⃣ Remove the eggs and dunk them in the ice bath. Let them sit for 5min then peel & enjoy! #eggs #vegetarianrecipes #shorts
