About the recipe

Egg Butter Masala is one of the gravy based dishes which is made using the rich Butter Masala gravy and eggs. Butter Masala is one of my favorite gravy and I keep on experimenting with it.

Sometimes it’s Paneer butter masala and next time it is with Mushroom. Chicken tastes amazing in this gravy too. This time, I decided to play with it a little more and came up with Egg Butter Masala.

The curry is my old recipe which is super easy to make and has always worked for me. The combination of rich and buttery gravy along with boiled and fried eggs came out superb and the serving dish was licked clean.

We relished it with crunchy, succulent Laccha Parathas and oh, every bite of this meal tasted finger-licking!
