This is a very delicious easy tomato egg gravy or egg curry without onions. Delicious egg curry made with hard boiled eggs in tomato & bell pepper sauce gravy makes a quick Indian style side dish with rice or chapathi or poori. I used yellow bell peppers or capsicum, but you may use green or red capsicum as well.

We use hard boiled eggs to make this egg curry, and we can use hard boiled eggs made on stove top or we can use instant pot hard boiled eggs for this recipe.

You can see here how to make perfect hard boiled eggs on stove top.

However, it is too easy to make perfect instant pot hard boiled eggs without rack in very little time!

Making boiled eggs in instant pot is such a time saver and you can use the perfectly made boiled eggs to make egg curry, hard boiled egg sandwich, South Indian Kerala style egg aviyal etc and in many more recipes where hard boiled eggs are required!

Egg curry made with colorful bell peppers is also known as capsicum egg masala or kadai egg masala.

It simply means egg masala made with capsicum (bell peppers) and spices.

This is not a traditional or authentic version of kadai egg masala, but this is a simple but delicious capsicum egg masala or egg gravy without using onions.

Unlike the kadai egg masala, here capsicum slices are almost cooked into the tomato gravy, to make a delicious, slightly spicy gravy in which boiled eggs are added.

However, if you prefere a crunchy texture for the capsicum, you may cook the capsicum slices little less to your preference.

Even if you do not have onions at home, you can prepare this delicious capsicum egg curry which goes great as a side dish with Indian breads like chapathi, poori or with white rice, brown rice, biryani rice, pulao etc.

Saute the tomato mixture in for about 2 to 3 minutes.

Add the ginger garlic paste, stir well and saute for another 1 to 2 minutes.
