11. Egg Curry: Quick Boiled Eggs in Spiced Gravy

Egg curry is a quick, protein-packed option that the pressure cooker can handle in two simple steps: cook and craft. Use the cooker to hard-boil eggs gently so they peel easily—steam or pressure-boil for a short cycle—then peel and set aside. Sauté onions, ginger, and tomato until they form a smooth gravy with a balanced spice mix. Add the eggs to the gravy and simmer briefly, or pressure-cook for a short pulse to allow the flavors to sink in without overcooking the eggs. Garnish with cilantro and serve with rotis, rice, or a simple pulao. For vegetarian households wanting a swap, use paneer or firm tofu in place of eggs. Egg curry adapts to many spice levels, so it’s a reliable option for mixing into meal prep rotations and family dinners alike.
