Lovely..very tempting curry
i love all the recipes.
Dear Lissie, could you please tell me how to paste tomatoes?
Dear Bindhu,
Thank you for trying some of my recipes. Happy to hear that you enjoyed it as well! In the ‘Egg Curry’ recipe, I have used store-brought tomato paste. Instead of that you can used chopped tomatoes or tomato puree, and saute till the oil separates.
Hope to hear more from you…
Happy cooking,
Lissie
Hello Lissie,
Could you detail the ingredients for “egg masala” please? First time I’ve come across this ingredient.
Thank you.

Hi Vimal,
I used store-bought ‘egg masala’ in this recipe. If it is not available,you can use ‘chicken masala’, ‘mutton masala’, ‘meat masala’ or ‘curry powder’.
Happy Cooking,
Lissie
