Boiled egg curry with peas

Chef :
Brinda BungarooBoiled egg curry with peas
I would say most probably one of the easiest easy curry ever. Ready in no time, simply hard boiled egg cooked in a really thick curry sauce. Elevate the dish with freshly chopped herbs enjoy with plain boiled rice.
Its a dish that reminds me of when we were little and my mum will rustle up this special curry when we had last minute visitors that turn up almost at meal time.
Also boiled egg was always a birthday treat for us, on our birthdays mum will boil and egg for us to have as a little treat.
It was like having the whole Easter cream egg all for yourself, such a treat.
To note cauliflower florets can be added to this curry too..as we call it in Mauritius "carri lichoufleur ek disef". But here I've added frozen peas instead.
