Goan Egg Curry Recipe, How to make Goan Egg Masla Curry Recipe

Goan Egg Curry Recipe – a classic red masala curry which  tastes great with steamed rice Or pao! There are lot of versions of goan egg curry recipes. This is an easy version and simple to make. Actually you could make same curry with chicken, fish Or vegetables. It tastes different with fish, veggies and chicken.

Curry is made with red paste. Spices like cinnamon, coriander seed, peppercorn, red chilies and coconut is used. I have shallow fried the egg but it’s optional. You could add boiled eggs directly instead of frying. I love the fried version of eggs though.

I have made a lot of goan vegetarian food and they all taste great. You could make kala vatana usal, vegetarian goan sorak curry and veg caldin. Goa is known for its coastal food and sea food. But vegetarian food also tastes yum.
