Ingredients

8 large eggs
5 medium potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch cubes
3 tbsp BackYard Blendz Green Seasoning – Spicy Blend
1 large onion, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tomatoes, chopped
3 tbsp curry powder
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 1/4 cup coconut milk
1 cup water
3 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

Boil the Eggs: Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot, remove from heat, and let the eggs sit for 10-12 minutes. Then, transfer the eggs to ice-cold water. Once cooled, peel and set aside.
Prepare the Curry Base:
- In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
- Stir in the curry powder, turmeric powder.
- Cook the spices for a couple of minutes, ensuring they don’t burn.
- Add the chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the BackYard Blendz Green Seasoning. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften and blend with the onions.
- Pour in the coconut milk.
Add the Potatoes and Eggs:
- Add the diced potatoes and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Add Salt and water.
- Cut the boiled eggs in half and gently add them to the pan.
- Stir well, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 10-15 minutes, allowing the flavours to meld and potatoes to get tender and the eggs and potatoes to soak up the curry flavour.
Simmer and Finish:
- If the curry is too thick, you can add a splash of water to adjust the consistency.
- Let it simmer
Garnish and Serve:
- Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
- Serve hot with steamed rice, naan, or your favourite bread.

Cooking Tips

Seasoning in layers by adding salt and seasonings at different stages in cooking process
Incorporating fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, or parsley at the end of cooking adds a burst of freshness and brightens up the entire dish.
A splash of vinegar or a squeeze of lemon or lime can balance and enhance the natural flavours of a dish.
Toasting spices and nuts in a dry pan before adding them to your recipes can intensify their flavors and add a new dimension of taste.
Allowing ingredients like onions, meat, and even vegetables to brown in the pan creates a rich, complex flavor foundation
