Prepare the Manchurian Sauce
Combine and Serve
Replace the eggs with 200g of paneer cubes, large mushroom halves, or cauliflower florets (gobi). Follow the same battering and frying process.
To make a gravy version, mix 1 tbsp of corn flour with 1 cup of water to make a slurry. Add this to the sauce in Step 4 after adding the other sauces, and cook for 2-3 minutes until it thickens.
For a lower-calorie version, lightly coat the battered eggs with oil spray and bake in an oven or air fryer at 200°C (400°F) for 15-20 minutes, or until golden and crisp.
Add 1 tsp of Schezwan sauce along with the other sauces for an extra spicy and garlicky kick.
Eggs are a complete protein source, containing all nine essential amino acids necessary for muscle repair, immune function, and overall body maintenance.
This dish includes bell peppers, a great source of Vitamin C for immunity, and onions and garlic, which contain beneficial antioxidants.
The carbohydrates from the flour-based batter provide a quick source of energy, making this a satisfying and energizing appetizer.
One serving of Hyderabadi Egg Manchurian Dry contains approximately 350-450 calories, depending on the amount of oil absorbed during frying.
Egg Manchurian is a delicious indulgence. While eggs provide high-quality protein, the dish is deep-fried, which adds significant calories and fat. It's best enjoyed in moderation as a special treat rather than a daily meal.
Absolutely! You can easily substitute the eggs with paneer cubes, mushrooms, baby corn, or cauliflower florets (gobi) to create a delicious vegetarian Manchurian.
The key is to toss the fried eggs in the sauce right before serving. Frying them until they are very crispy and draining them well on a wire rack also helps maintain their texture.
You can do some prep in advance. You can boil and peel the eggs, chop the vegetables, and mix the dry ingredients for the batter. However, for the best texture, you should fry the eggs and toss them in the sauce just before serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Please note that the crispy coating will soften upon refrigeration. Reheat in a pan or microwave until hot.
