Notes

  • You can make dry Kolhapuri masala and combine it with Indian bhuna masala for making Kolhapuri egg curry. Dry Kolhapuri masala stays good for 7-8 days in the fridge.
  • You can pre-cook the Kolhapuri masala from scratch and store it in the fridge (stays good for 3-4 days) or freezer (stays good for 5-6 weeks).
  • If you can not handle too much heat you can adjust the red chili and black pepper powder as per your taste.
