【雞蛋咖哩 # 2】Egg Curry # 2


N這幾個星期都在家上班,所以我就開始了既要照顧俊寶,又要照顧俊爸的飲食的日子,這樣的日子過了一個星期我就開始罷工了,叫了幾次外賣和吃了幾次外食之後,俊爸就開始要求要吃住家飯了。

我剛好沒心情做複雜的,就弄了個簡單的雞蛋咖哩,加上米飯,既好吃又簡易。

N worked from home the past few weeks, so I had to think of what to make for lunch and dinner everyday beside preparing toddler food for little A. 

After about a week or so I started feeling tired and was out of ideas for what to cook. We ordered a few take outs and deliveries. When that happened more than thrice in a week, N started giving me that "I want some home-cook food" look.

So I had no choice but to whipped up something simple tonight, there is nothing simpler than a simple egg curry for dinner, it could be done in literally less than 30 minutes and one can't really go wrong with a egg curry!

材料:
4-5 只水煮蛋 去殼切半
1 只 中型的洋蔥
2 只 Roma 番茄 (切丁)
2 只 青辣椒

1 根 咖哩葉 (大約十五葉)  optional 
1 根 桂皮/肉桂
1/2 tsp 葫蘆巴籽 (Methi)
 
調味/香料:
1/2 tsp 黃薑粉 turmeric powder (Haldi)
