Another varutharacha Curry to my list. This different version of varutharacha curry recipe was shared by one of my friend. I really luv this with Puttu and Ghee Rice. In fact it takes just half an hour to cook this. Once the curry is cooked, the smell will really make any one hungry!!. "It's easy to capture pics of this curry but how can I capture this wonderful smell?" my hubby was commenting... :)

Preparation:

1. Heat a pan and roast the grated coconut. (If needed you can add oil for roasting but I normally don't prefer it.)

9. Add the sliced egg pieces and mix with the masala softly without breaking the eggs.
10. Then add the grinded paste with 1/2 cup of water.
11. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes. Once ready transfer it to a bowl.
