A delightful twist on a traditional South African dish, this spiced egg curry combines rich flavors with a creamy sauce to create a comforting and satisfying meal.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Using unsalted butter allows you to control the saltiness of the dish.
Add the chopped onion and sauté until golden brown.
Stir frequently to prevent the onions from burning.
In a mixing bowl, combine the curry powder, flour, salt, pepper, sugar, and vinegar to form a paste.
Mixing the spices with vinegar helps to evenly distribute the flavors.
Stir the paste into the sautéed onions, then gradually add the warm water while stirring.
Adding the water slowly prevents lumps from forming in the sauce.
Simmer the sauce for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Simmering allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Halve the hard-boiled eggs and arrange them on a serving dish.
Cutting the eggs neatly enhances the presentation of the dish.
Pour the sauce over the eggs and serve warm.
Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro for added color and flavor.
