Today I am sharing a delicious egg curry recipe. Pouched eggs in ground coconut gravy are one of my side dishes. This curry is a wonderful combination of idiyappam, appam and nice pathiri. My most favourite egg curry is this one obviously made by my mom, in which eggs are poached in ground coconut gravy.
