Egg curry can be made in many ways but I prefer this Andhra style kodi guddu pulusu. it is a tangy spicy curry. It’s a sour curry because of the tamarind pulp we use which is a main ingredient. it is pretty easy to make, my grandmother used to cook this once in a week.
Egg can provide a number of health benefits
