Punjabi style of curries are seriously fingerlicking goodness. Trust me i love their dhabba style dishes and when ever i get a chance to taste in their dhabba, i dont hesitate a second at all. And its been a long i had punjabi dishes in a Dhabba. However to replicated their dishes at home is definitely a must for me. And my today's recipe is a Dhabba style Punjabi egg curry which is also known as Anda Curry or Anda Masala. This egg curry tastes absolutely delicious to have with both rice and rotis. Trust this curry is an excellent accompaniment to relish with Butter naans or kulchas. My family members enjoyed this Dhabba style Egg curry with hot steaming rice and papads. Yes this dish is definitely an interesting dish to give a try as you doesnt need anything fancy to cook this delectable curry.
Am here with my Anda curry for this week's Blogginh marathon, as am running this week's theme with Indian Regional Dishes. Obviously for the first day of this week's theme, i grabbed this dhabba style Egg curry to please my eggtarians at home.Trust me this curry is a prefect to enjoy with any sort of mildly spiced rice dishes. A real feast for egg lovers, and the curry tastes extremely delicious as its loaded with varieties of spices. Coming to this lipsmacking Dhabba style egg curry, you can replace the eggs with cubed potatoes or cubed paneer if you want to prepare this same dish for a vegetarian version. Also not to forget that you can replace the eggs very will with chicken chunks or else mutton chunks. Yes this curry is definitely a must try, if you Dhabba style dishes.
