    Hi Jaya and Kavitha, the tomatoes should be ground as a paste with cashews and poppy seeds. It should be added when you add the boiled eggs or even before or 2 mins after adding the boiled eggs.Then cook for 5 to 7 mins. After the masala is done , you add the curd,garam masala and kasoor methi etc and cook for 2 to 3 mins, till done.

    Hi, please tell me when to add cashew nuts and if we add tomatoes, curd, garam masala and kasoori methi after the eggs are added then how will the tomatoes and other things will get cooked they will remain raw and tomatoes will smell. Also the egg yolk will become softer and brake - Kavita Chugani.
