Spicy Madras Egg Curry. Here in Britain, Madras curries are so common that you'll find in each and every Indian restaurant. According to the local people it is very hot and spicy, but for me it was very bland and after trying in few restaurant I was so much in mood to cook my own version of spicy madras curries. I have tried in chicken, mutton and egg too, but this is the curry most loved by my husband. I have tried making the madras curry masala at home and it taste better then the store bought one and will be posting the recipe for masala also in next post. This gravy taste better if it is little thin but you can make gravy according to your choice thin or thick. Do try this spicy curry at home and enjoy with your family.
