Directions
1) over six eggs with water and bring to boil. Cook 10 minutes. Run under cold water, crack, and peel. Score the eggs with a series of small knife slits to allow the curry seasoning to flavor the eggs better.

3) add onion, saute about 5 minutes

4) Add remaining spices (turmeric, masala, chili, coriander, ginger, garlic, and salt), fresh unsweetened, shredded or grated coconut (unsweetened at the Asian grocer), tomatoes, water , and coconut milk, cooking about 5 minutes.

5) Add potatoes (quartered with skin left on). I often add these already roasted in the oven where they only need to be brought up to heat to serve curry.

6) Score with knife egg white of while leaving yolks in tact. Add to curry.

7) Add cilantro. Cook until potatoes are done (about 20 minutes)

8) Serve on rice.
