PRO TIPS:

• Only hard boiled eggs works well for this recipe.
• To make a hard boiled egg, it has to be boiled for at least 20 minutes.
• Since the eggs are already cooked completely, frying it for 2 to 3 minutes on each side is more than enough.
• Make sure the masala is cooked properly. The masala has to turn to dark brown in color.

NOTE:

Cooking the boiled eggs can be tricky since, overcooking the boiled eggs might make them burst. To avoid this, at the final stage of cooking, turn the flame to low and, frequently turn the eggs in an interval of 5-10 seconds, until the masala gets cooked completely.
