Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole egg
  • a pinch of red chili powder
  • a pinch of turmeric powder
  • a pinch of pepper powder
  • a pinch of salt,
  • 2 tbsp plain salna/ kurma, for masala kalakki
  • 1 tsp oil

Instructions
 

  • Prepare all the ingredients required for the kalakki.
  • Break the egg into a bowl and add all the spices to it.
  • Beat the egg along with the spices.
  • Heat a iron tawa. When it is hot, apply oil and pour the beaten egg.
    For masala kalakki, pour the salna in the middle as shown in the picture. For plain kalakki, avoid the salna and move to the next step.
  • Immediately fold the egg from all sides forming a pocket as shown in the picture.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

  • I've added the leftover gravy of chicken salna. You can add any coconut based gravy, but a non-veg gravy would make the dish taste even better.
  • The tawa should be super hot to make the kalakki.
  • Fold all sides immediately.
  • You should work really fast to make the kalakki making sure that the inside is still uncooked while the outside is cooked.
  • Once folded, move it to a plate immediately to stop it from cooking any further.
