Can I use home made tomato puree instead of the Hunt's tomato paste that u have used?<br />Hmm coming to the topic of husbands:Mine is a ghoti like me..and he learnt cooking even when I never knew how to prepare Maggi..I still remember he had prepared Malpoa when we were engineering grads..but after we tied the knot the only time he steps into the kitchen is when I am ill. As my thamma(granny) points out: "Ghora dekhe khoda hoye geche"(Literally translates to: After seeing a horse he has become a cripple). I must say u r lucky to have a hubby who is so willing to help u in the kitchen. Yes grass is always greener on the other side!!debjaninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-9571567844664072522010-02-08T12:51:43.181-05:002010-02-08T12:51:43.181-05:00I love this dish.

We make deem-er dalna at home and when the eggs have been hard boiled we make length-wise slits with a sharp knife around the egg, rub some turmeric, salt and red chilli powder onto them, and fry in butter. The outer skin goes crispy and tastes incredible. I'll try your bake with the spicy fried hard boiled eggs.<br />Thanks for a great post!Shmiihttp://crispyduckdiaries.ananyah.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-29508388041345293252009-09-16T19:19:25.033-04:002009-09-16T19:19:25.033-04:00Hi!

First let me thank you for the innovative and delicious recipes that you have posted here. I am a Bengali Mom living in Chicago and in IT like you and I love to try new recipes. Unfortunately, I don't have your talent for innovating new recipes :-( But I tried your Spicy Egg Bake and Ginger Chicken for a dinner party last weekend; and let me say it was a BIG hit among everybody. All the guests praised my cooking skills and needless to say, I was very proud :-)I didn't take credit for the recipes though and told them your about Blogs and how good a cook you are. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again and happy cooking!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-2722602330397555102007-02-02T19:54:00.000-05:002007-02-02T19:54:00.000-05:00Hey SJ

Hope the...Hey SJ<br />Saw your question on the Egg Bake<br /><br />Hope the following helps<br /><br />1. Make the gravy thick enough, the proportions are as given in the blog but thicken the gravy<br /><br />2. When you bake, the gravy will almost dry up, there will be no jhol as such, it will be moist but no jhol. Since the gravy is thick it will brown and make the eggs moist but there will be little or no gravy (almost jhol thakbe na)<br /><br />Let me know how it turns out :)Bong Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15407918137263251235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35578975.post-6269242851103140702007-02-02T14:45:00.000-05:002007-02-02T14:45:00.000-05:00Hi Sandeepa,
