Mutta roast

Egg roast or nadan mutta roast is a traditional dish originating from Kerala. The dish is usually made with a combination of eggs, ginger-garlic paste, onions, oil, mustard seeds, curry leaves, turmeric, red chili powder, lime juice, salt, and pepper.

The eggs are hard-boiled, peeled, and incised with a knife on the sides so that the masalas can seep into the slits. The mustard seeds are fried in oil and mixed with ginger, garlic, onions, curry leaves, turmeric, chili powder, water, lime juice, and pepper.

The boiled eggs are placed into the pan and covered with the masala, then stir-fried for a few minutes. Mutta roast is often served with Indian flatbreads and basmati rice on the side.
