Notes
Making slits in the eggs allows for proper infusion of spices.
To enhance the flavor and appearance of the dish, the eggs are fried first.
Onions and spices are always fried by me on a low fire. This allows for perfect cooking without burning the spices.
Better results can be obtained by frying the masala mixture and black pepper separately one after the other.
Fry the masala mix and black pepper one after the other for better results.
