Anda Malai Recipe / How to make Anda Malai :
Boil the eggs and cut them in half and keep it aside. Make a smooth paste of onion and green chilli. Also grind ginger garlic finely together. Get yourself some milk and cream too. Once all the ingredients are ready, just get a pan and pour everything one by one.
First, heat oil and then add onion and chilli paste, keep stirring continuously and don't let it brown, after a while add ginger garlic and cook until the raw smell is gone. To this add dry masalas like black pepper powder, salt, dhaniya and jeera powder.
After everything has been mixed together, switch off the flame and then slowly add milk to make sure it doesn't curdle. Mix the milk with the gravy properly and then get it back on the stove. Now add the cream and make a thick gravy. In the end, add eggs and coat it with the gravy properly for 2-3 minutes on each side. Sprinkle some garam masala and coriander and take it off the heat. You can serve Anda Malai with Rice, roti or naan. Read the full recipe here.
