Egg Pulusu / Egg Cooked in Tamarind Sauce
by:
Eggs are my favorite. I love to have scrambled eggs in the morning, egg curry for lunch, egg dosa for dinner and even poached egg for a late night snack. From this you can see how much I love eggs. I experiment with eggs, because it is the only ingredient available in my fridge at any time. Apart from all the egg preparations, this dish is quite different, it is a tangy spicy curry that goes perfectly with anything. I serve it with appam. This dish is originally from Andhra, it is pretty easy to make, so go ahead and make this dish, let me know what you think. If you have any good egg recipes, dont regret to share with me.
