EGG PULUSU

EGG PULUSU
Egg Pulusu is a typical South-Indian or more specifically a Telugu Dish. Pulusu simply implies a mixture of tamarind juice with salt and chilly powder. The sour taste of tamarind catches on to the boiled eggs giving it a wonderful taste. Making small slits on the sides of the eggs will ensure the 'Pulusu' penetrates the eggs giving it the desired taste.
Serves: 4
Ingredients:
6 eggs, 1 onion, 1 tsp jeera (Cumin) seeds, 1 tsp methi seeds (Fenugreek seeds), 2 tsp coriander seeds, 2 tomatoes, 2 tbsp tamarind pulp, 2 tsp red chili powder, 1 tsp turmeric, 2 tsp ginger garlic paste, 1 tsp mustard seeds, Curry leaves, 2 green chilies, salt to taste.
