One of the evening snacks loved by most people is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/egg-puffs-egg-roast-in-puff-pastry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Egg puffs,<\/a> in which hard boiled egg roast is used to\u00a0stuff the puff pastry. Egg curries can be made many ways, most delicious egg curries are made by adding\u00a0coconut milk or ground coconut.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d already\u00a0posted the recipe for making a few egg curries, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/category\/recipes\/by-category\/egg-dishes\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here are the recipes.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>My most favorite egg curry is this one obviously made by my mom, in which eggs are poached in roasted coconut gravy. I&#8217;m not a huge fan of eggs, but the eggs that are cooked in this curry tastes extremely delicious and I&#8217;ll be seen enjoying two or three of &#8217;em. The fresh grated coconut is roasted till golden brown in color, combined with aromatic spices and cinnamon and made into a paste. The eggs are cracked directly\u00a0into the boiling coconut gravy and allowed to cook. It&#8217;s more like poaching the eggs in the aromatic coconut gravy.<\/p>\n<p>After a few minutes of cooking, the nice aroma from this curry will spread your kitchen and will make you hungry. The taste of this egg curry is phenomenal, you&#8217;ll fall head over heals for this yummy egg curry just like me.<\/p>\n<p>I love the combination of this curry along with <a
