directions

Bring a pot of water to boil, add the eggs and boil for 10 minutes.
After ten minutes add the salt to the water and add the potatoes with the eggs and boil for another five minutes.
In a small frying pan add the spices (coriander, ginger, curry, pepper), and toast them over low heat for about two minutes, or until the spices become aromatic.
Drain the potatoes and eggs, and add the butter to the pan with the spices, stir the spices into the melting butter, and add the potatoes and coat.
Peel and chop the eggs into bite sized pieces, and add to the pan and toss again.
If the spices and butter become to dry to toss the potatoes and eggs with, add 1/4 cup of water or milk to thin it out.
Add the cilantro and salt to taste, and cook for about a minute longer until all flavors are combined.

I love this recipe! The only changes I made were to eliminate the coriander and cilantro (I can't stand them) and add some garlic powder. I've been using a generic brand curry powder for it, but am itching to try it with Keens (English brand, I believe), as it's sweeter than what I have now, and well suited to eggs.<br/>Thank you for sharing!

This was a delicious, mild curry and was a huge hit with my whole family, including my 1 and 3 year olds! I doubled it for 4 people and only used about 1/4 tsp pepper. It was a bit dry for us so I added 1/2 c whole milk. This was so easy and good it is definitely going to become a regular recipe! The only thing I might do next time is add some onions sautÃ©ed in butter.

I made this today for breakfast. I am a fan of indian food but this just didnt do it for me in the spice dept. Simple to make though. Thank you:)

i've made this pretty much the way you described, except i used my own blend of masala instead of curry powder (which i find to be less aromatic) and added a small tomato. very good recipe...this is the only way i really eat eggs (minus the yellow)
