How we make it:


Make a paste of onion, green chillies and ginger. Take eggs and whisk them in a bowl. Add half of the mixture into it. Grease oil in a tight steel container. Pour the mixture in it And then cover the container. Pour water in a pan and put the container into it and now heat the pan. Keep the water boil for 5 to 6 mins and then sim the flame and keep it for 20 to 25mins more. Now take the container out and cut the steamed eggs into squares. 

Now heat oil in a pan. Add sliced onions in it and saute it. Now add chopped tomatoes and cook them well. Now add garlic paste. When garlic paste is fried well and smell starts to come out, add tge remaining onion and ginger paste into it and mix them well. now add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, kashmiri red chilli powder, coriander powder and salt and cook them well. When oil starts to come out from the mixture, pour a little water ( not too much, we need a thick gravy). When the gravy starts boiling, add the egg cakes into it and cook it for sometime. Now add a little sugar and garam masala powder. Garnish it with chopped coriander leaves.
