Golden Egg Curry – easy Thermomix meal

golden-egg-curry

This Golden Egg Curry recipe for the Thermomix is a quick one to make and just bursting with flavour! It’s a mild curry, with a good dose of fresh turmeric, which gives it a bright colour and lovely flavour.

About ten years ago, my brother-in-law made the first egg curry I ever tried. He’s a fantastic cook so I was keen to taste it… even though the thought of eggs in a curry was something I’d never considered prior to that moment. It seemed strange but at the same time I imagined it was going to be good. After all, I love eggs and I love curries!

From the first mouthful I was hooked! I have asked him since if he’ll make it again, but he wings it in the kitchen and tells me he’d never be able to make it the same again.

Never mind, I created this deliciousness! Golden Egg Curry for the Thermomix. Aptly named, as the eggs turn golden in colour, thanks to the inclusion of fresh turmeric in the curry sauce.

If you’re reading through this and not sure if an egg curry is your thing, just trust me. It might just become your favourite curry! I promise, it’s really very good.

The ingredients are mostly available at your local supermarket. Dried curry leaves and black mustard seeds don’t seem to be as readily available. Don’t worry, though, your local Indian grocer is sure to carry both.

Like with most Indian-inspired curries, this one goes great with rice, or cauliflower rice. Also if you’re after a wicked flatbread recipe for dipping in the sauce, the Fast Flatbreads in Super Sides Made Easy are perfect!

This was absolutely delicious!!! Can’t believe I hadn’t seen it before. I didn’t have the curry leaves and used ground turmeric and jar ginger but was still so so good! My partner who ‘needs meat’ also loved it. Thank you for such a great recipe thats so easy too.

Why did I wait so long to make this delicious curry!?! Yummo! Didn’t have any fresh tumeric so used 1tsp of dried tumeric in its place and also used fresh curry leaves instead of dried. I would never have believed an egg curry could be so yummy! Didn’t miss the meat at all!!

What a lovely, creamy delicious curry. I dont like hot food so this is perfect for my taste. I couldnt get fresh tumeric so I used powdered for the colour & substituted it with fresh galangal. I served it with a yogurt raita, heaps of fresh coriander and mango chutney. Turned out yummy but I will try again with fresh tumeric and chicken or fish instead of egg. Great flavours!
