Begin by hard-boiling the eggs. Place the eggs in a pot and cover them with water. Bring to a boil, cover, and let simmer for 9-12 minutes. Once done, peel the eggs and set aside.
While the eggs are boiling, finely chop the onions and tomatoes. Set these aside.
Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add cumin seeds and let them crackle for about 30 seconds.
Add the chopped onions to the pan and sauté them until they turn golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and sauté for another minute until the raw aroma disappears.
Add the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, coriander powder, and red chili powder. Cook until the tomatoes turn soft and the oil starts to separate, about 5 minutes.
Gently add the hard-boiled eggs to the pan, and carefully stir to coat them with the masala.
Pour in 2 cups of water and add salt. Bring the curry to a gentle boil.
Sprinkle garam masala into the curry, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and thicken the gravy.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.
Serve hot with rice or Indian bread such as roti or naan.
