Directions
The eggs are first boiled, then roasted in a pan with aromatic spices like turmeric, black pepper, and curry leaves.
The roasted eggs are then simmered in a savory onion-ginger-garlic sauce, creating a rich and creamy dish. The roasting gives the quail eggs a nice caramelized exterior, while the simmering in the sauce infuses them with even more flavor.
Quail Egg Roast can be served as an appetizer, a side dish with rice or roti, or even as a light main course. It’s a great way to enjoy the unique taste and nutritional benefits of quail eggs in a simple yet delicious preparation.
The combination of roasted eggs in a flavorful sauce makes it a memorable and satisfying Indian-inspired delicacy.
