  1. this one is a treat for all egg lovers. I do make egg curry though do not cook any kind of meat at home. Will love to try this Bengali version of egg curry. Lovely share and the dish is so inviting!!

  2. I love egg curry of any sort. This Bengali style egg curry does sound really delicious and feel as though I can already smell the aroma of mustard oil and the spices.
