Egg curry with Fresh coriander and Raw mango

egg curry with fresh coriander and raw mango

I was looking were some inspiration. Yeah I do that quite often 😉

This huge bunch of fresh coriander, mint and couple of raw mangoes were stuffed in the crisper. Temperature is soars to 45 degrees C and I knew, even in the crisper the coriander will start wilting within a few days. So, making chutney was an option, but what more ??

Here came the spark !! 😛

The journey and execution of Egg curry with coriander and raw mango !!

As I am not fond of cooked mint taste, hence omitted.

The result was a lip -smacking, finger licking curry. (blowing my own trumpet, is so passe) 😛
