Egg Sothi (Sodhi) Recipe | Egg Coconut Milk Curry Recipe

Sothi Curry, Sodhi Kuzhambu or yellow coconut curry as it's known as popular coconut milk curry mostly served with iddiyapam or steamed rice. Sothi is Sri Lankan dish but it's also popular in South India specially in Tamilnadu and Kerala. Sothi is made with coconut milk and very midly spiced which makes it perfect for kids or for people whom doesn't like spicy food. Like all recipes sothi also made in few different ways and today am presenting egg or muttai sothi.

I added boiled eggs but if you wish you can skip the eggs and make this as only sothi curry and serve with iddiyapam or rice or even with parotta. We can also do variation with adding vegetables to make it more filling. I got this recipe from one of my friend whom makes sothi in many styles and of course everything is delicious.

If you want to try something different from usual chutney, sambar affair then this sothi or also known as sodhi is good change specially for guests. I served this half with parotta and half with steamed rice as I didn't made any iddiyapam.  I didn't click step wise pictures this time so bear with it.
