Method For Theeyal Masala: Heat a heavy bottomed kadai and dry roast all the ingredients on a low heat till golden color / fragrant for 20 - 25 minutes. Grind theeyal masala ingredients in a mixer without adding water. Grind till the oil leaves from the sides of the jar. It should be a very fine paste. Store in an airtight / Tupperware container for further use. For Egg Theeyal: Heat oil in a non stick kadai. Fry sliced small onions till pink color and fragrant. Add curry leaves, tamarind paste or chopped tomatoes and stir well for 5 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon theeyal masala and 1/2 cup water. Stir gently. Adjust salt. Cover with a lid and cook on a low heat for another 8 - 10 minutes till the gravy slightly thickens. Add boiled egg and cook again a low heat for 5 minutes. Serve as a side dish with Rotis / Whole wheat bread / Rice.. |
