Method:
1. I’ve boiled the Eggs in advance. Peel of the skin of potatoes and cut each of them into 4 pieces. In a grinder, combine onion, cumin seeds, cloves, cardamom green, cardamom brown, mace and black pepper. Grind it to make a fine paste. You can add a small amount of water while grinder to make a fine paste.
2. Heat the pressure cooker with oil, and temper with fenugreek seeds.
3. Add the ground paste to the pressure cooker. Add salt, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, ginger-garlic paste, red chilli, turmeric and coriander powder.
4. Cook the spices on medium flame for 7-8 minutes, till the oil shows separately. Heat another pan with oil and fry potatoes on high flame for 2-3 minutes.
5. Add fried potato into the pressure cooker along with a glass of water. Pressure cook it on high flame for one whistle, then slow the heat and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Switch off the flame and let it cool. Open cooker after 15 minutes to get oil on the top of the curry. Curry will look good in color.
6. Peel off the skin of Eggs. Fry the Eggs for half minutes in the same pan you fried potato. Add fried eggs into the cooker and garnish with coriander leaves. Serve hot with rice and chapatti.
7. Enjoy!
