2 tablespoons chutney podi (spiced chutney powder)
¾ teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons chopped coriander leaves (cilantro)
Instructions:
Boil the Eggs:
Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let them simmer for about 10-12 minutes. Once done, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to cool. Peel and set aside.
Prepare the Tadka:
In a pan, heat the ghee over medium heat. Once hot, add the mustard seeds and let them splutter.
