CURRY EGGS OVER RICE (FOR LEFTOVER HARD BOILED EGGS)
A delicious main dish that uses up those leftover hard boiled eggs from Easter. The lady who prepared this on the show said that her mother used to make this dish often during Lent. I adapted this recipe from one I saw on "Calling All Cooks" on Food Network. This recipe halves beautifully. This is not a particularly spicy dish, just rich in flavor. (Note:There is no curry powder in this recipe - you are essentially making your own blend using various spices.)

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large pan and cook the onion for 8-10 mins until soft and just turning golden. Boil the kettle. Stir the curry paste, ground turmeric, rice and raisins into the onions. Crumble over the stock cube and pour over enough boiled water from the kettle to cover the rice by ½cm (about 1 litre). Season with some salt. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover the pan, reduce the heat to its lowest setting and cook for 2 mins more. Without taking off the lid, remove from the heat and leave to steam for 15 mins. This will give you perfect, fluffy rice.
- Meanwhile, bring another pan of water to the boil and cook the eggs for 7 mins. Plunge into a bowl of cold water to stop them cooking and once cool, drain and halve.
- Tip the rice into a container and chill for at least 1 hr, or up to two days. When you're ready to serve, scatter over the coriander and almonds, and top with the grated carrot, cucumber slices and eggs.

Tips:
- Choosing the right eggs is essential for this recipe. Look for large, fresh eggs with bright orange yolks. To ensure they peel easily, place them in cold water for 10 minutes before boiling. Crack the eggs gently to avoid breaking the yolks, and immerse them carefully in boiling water.
- For a more flavorful curry sauce, use homemade curry paste. You can find many recipes online or in cookbooks. However, store-bought curry paste can also work well. Adjust the quantity of curry paste according to your desired level of heat.
- For a creamier curry sauce, add a dollop of coconut milk or yogurt. This will help to balance the acidity of the tomatoes and give the sauce a rich, velvety texture.
- Don't skip the step of peeling the eggs before frying them. This will help to create a crispy outer layer that will hold the curry sauce well. Additionally, peeling the eggs before frying will prevent the curry sauce from sticking to the pan.
- If you don't have time to make rice, you can serve the curried eggs with another side dish of your choice, such as quinoa, couscous, or naan bread.
Conclusion:
Curried eggs with rice is a simple yet satisfying dish that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs. The curry sauce is flavorful and creamy, and the crispy fried eggs add a delicious touch. Whether you serve it with rice or another side dish, this dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
