Devilish Eggs...

Ingredients of Devilish Eggs-

For the Potato Mixture-

Medium-sized Potatoes - 4

Oil - 2 tablespoons

Chopped Onion - 1/2 cup

Ginger and Garlic, grated - 1 tablespoon

Chopped Green Chillies - 1 teaspoon

Turmeric powder - 1/2 teaspoon

Roasted Cumin powder - 1 teaspoon

Garam Masala powder - 1/3 teaspoon

Salt to taste

Chopped Cilantro - 1/2 cup

For the Batter-

Eggs - 5, lightly beaten

Crushed Peppercorns - 1/2 teaspoon

Salt - 1/2 teaspoon

Other Ingredients-

Hard-boiled Eggs - as many devils you want to make, here I have used 15 hard-boiled eggs

All-Purpose Flour (Maida) - 1/2 cup

Bread Crumbs - 2 cups                   

Oil for deep frying

Black salt for sprinkling on the Devils.

   

Method-

Make the Potato Mixture first-

Take the potatoes, peel them and boil them in a pressure cooker. Let the potatoes cool down, and mash them. Make sure there is no lumps in the mashed potato. Now heat oil in a pan, add chopped onion, ginger-garlic, green chillies and fry till become light golden in color. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, roasted cumin powder, coriander powder, black pepper powder and garam masala powder to the pan and sprinkle some water to prevent the spices from getting burnt. Add salt to taste. Fry for a few seconds, and then add the mashed potatoes and mix with the masala mixture well. Fry the mixture for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and let the mixture cool down to room temperature.

Prepare the Batter-

Take all the ingredients mentioned under the heading of Batter in a bowl, and mix well, add little water, like 1 tablespoon at a time to make a smooth batter. The batter should be smooth but thick like pancake batter. So add water as much as you want to make the batter.

Making the Devils-

Let see the potato mixture has been cool down or not.  Add the chopped cilantro to the mixture.

Take 1 whole egg, now cover with the potato mixture and shape it to a full one.

Make rest of the devils just like this. Now it's time to arrange the All-Purpose Flour on a clean plate, and the bread crumbs on another plate. Take each devil shaped egg, first roll on the All Purpose Flour, shake the excess flour, and then dip into the egg batter, and finally roll into the bread crumbs. Make rest of the devils in this same way. Now keep the bread crumb coated devils in an airtight container and keep inside the refrigerator for overnight or at least 4 hours.

Heat enough oil in a deep frying pan. The oil should be smoking hot. Just remove 3-4 egg devils from the container and add to the hot oil carefully.

Fry till golden brown and take them out of the oil and place on a paper towel.

 

Serve hot by sprinkling some black salt on the Devils and serve with ketchup and chopped cucumber and onion.
