Curry Eggs over Rice (For Leftover Hard Boiled Eggs) image

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.)

The eggs were a bit overcooked for my liking. I would recommend cooking them for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding some extra spices to the curry sauce. Otherwise, it's a good way to use up leftover hard-boiled eggs.
