Notes

I would always suggest you go with a low or medium heat when frying the egg. This keeps cooking steady from inside and out. That way, no part gets left behind.
You can try ghee or clarified butter rather than regular butter to cook the egg tikka.
Even if I’ve never tried it, tossing in some chopped tomatoes when you cook the egg tikka could work just fine.
