About Egg Idli
Egg Idli are a delicious and unique way to serve eggs for breakfast or snacks. They are easy to make and come together in less than 30 minutes using simple ingredients. To make egg idlies, eggs are steamed in idli molds with salt and pepper and later tempered with curry leaves, dry red chilies, and a few more simple ingredients. Serve these for breakfast or a snack with a side of toast or a cup of South Indian Filter Coffee or Masala Chai.
Serving Suggestions
These Idli eggs with a South Indian tadka taste great on their own with a side of morning tea, coffee, or fresh juice for breakfast. To temper the steamed egg idli, you will need oil, brown mustard seeds, curry leaves, dry red chilies, Kashmiri red chili powder, and turmeric powder. You can skip adding chili powder and dry red chili if making it for kids You will also need salt and pepper. Cilantro (fresh coriander leaves) for garnishing is highly recommended too. Unmold the egg idlies from the mold and set them aside.
1 teaspoon brown mustard seeds 10-12 whole curry leaves 1 whole dry red chili (broken into small pieces) ½ teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder ½ teaspoon turmeric powder
You can also serve a crisp toast on the side to make it filling. You can also place it in between two slices of bread and enjoy it as a sandwich. It will also taste great with Plain Tawa Paratha or Lachha Paratha.

This egg recipe tastes great when served fresh, right out of the idli molds. Leftovers can be stored for a few hours in an airtight container at room temperature.
