Steps:
- Melt the ghee in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the shallots, and cook until the shallots begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Season with the curry powder, and cook 5 minutes more. Add the tablespoon of water if needed to keep the shallots from burning.
- Meanwhile, place the cream cheese into a microwave-safe bowl, and cook in the microwave until the cream cheese is fairly soft, about 30 seconds on High. Whisk in the eggs and Dijon mustard until the cream cheese is mostly mixed in (a few lumps are fine). Stir the egg mixture into the skillet with the shallots, and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the eggs have firmed. They will still be softer than normal scrambled eggs because of the cream cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper just as the eggs are ready to come out of the pan.

Steps:
- If using tamarind paste or a tamarind ball, soak in 1/2 cup warm water for 10 minutes, strain and reserve the water.
- Heat the oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy saucepan or a deep, straight-sided skillet. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until it is tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and chili pepper and continue to sauté until the garlic is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the spices and stir together for a minute. Pulse the tomatoes with their juice a few times in a food processor or mini-chop, then add to the pan, along with salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a simmer and simmer over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, stirring often. Stir in the tamarind soaking water or lemon juice and the cayenne, taste and adjust seasonings. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- For one serving, remove all but about 1/2 cup of the sauce from the pan and reserve for another time. Bring the sauce in the pan to a simmer. Break the egg or eggs into a teacup, and carefully tip into the tomato sauce. Cover the pan and simmer over low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, until the tops of the whites are set but the yellow yolks show through. It's important that the yolk be runny. Turn off the heat. Season the eggs with salt and pepper to taste and sprinkle with cilantro. Remove from the heat and serve over basmati rice.

Steps:
- Beat eggs, salt, pepper and cream or milk together in mixing bowl.
- Heat olive oil in a pan on med. to med-high, and saute chopped garlic, chile, tomato, green onion and curry powders and give everything a stir. Let it cook for a few minutes, letting flavors integrate, until chopped veggies wilt.
- Pour egg mixture into pan and give one or two good stirs with a wooden spoon, distributing veggies and seasoning into the liquid.
- Babysit, making semi-frequent stirs, until egg mixture is preferred consistency. This mixture will solidify into a spongy scrambled egg if left cooking long enough (my preference), but you can stop cooking when it's still a creamier, more custardy texture, as many favor.
- Great served by itself or, if of a creamy texture, on top of a crusty bread. Think fresh fruit, like strawberries, as a side, and tea to drink.
- Garnish with cilantro.
- Serve.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right eggs: Use large, fresh eggs for the best results.
- Hard-boil the eggs perfectly: Place the eggs in a single layer in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring the water to a boil, then cover the pan and remove it from the heat. Let the eggs stand in the hot water for 10-12 minutes, then transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
- Peel the eggs easily: As soon as the eggs are cool enough to handle, peel them under cold running water. This will help to loosen the shells and make them easier to remove.
- Make the curry sauce ahead of time: The curry sauce can be made up to 3 days in advance. Simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Adjust the spice level to your liking: If you like your curry sauce mild, use less curry powder. If you like it spicy, use more.
- Serve the curried eggs with your favorite sides: Curried eggs are delicious served with rice, noodles, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Curried eggs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs, and they can be served as an appetizer, main course, or snack.
