Egg butter masala

Panner/cottage cheese butter masala is my favorite curry, but having it frequently is not good for health, so I have got an idea to replace panner with boiled egg and I call this curry as Egg butter masala. Panner is high in calorific value so, many people who have calorie conscious keep avoiding this curry though they carve for it!
here is the simple recipe just replace panner with boiled egg and I bet you will love it!
Ingredients:
Boiled eggs-5( if you want to make with panner you will need Paneer/tofu -1 block, appx.2 cups of cubes)

Onion - 1 medium-sized one, chopped fine

Ginger-1 inch

garlic cloves - 2

Sesame seeds-3ts

Coconut milk-1/2cup

Tamarind- half lemon size

Green peas-1/4cup

Dhania powder/malli podi/Coriander powder - 1 tbsp

Cumin powder-1/2ts

Garam masala - 1 tsp

Red chilli powder - 1 tsp

Tomato paste- 1 tbsp (or 1 tomato, pureed)

Kasuri methi/dried fenugreek leaves - 1 generous pinch

cumin seeds-few

cinnamon stick-1 small

bay leaf-1 big

Turmeric-pinch

Butter-1/2 stick

Cream - 2ts

Oil - 3 tbsp

Salt - to taste

Method:

• Boil and remove shell from the egg and keep them side.
