Have a candle lit near where you're cutting them and the onion fumes will head for the flame of the candle instead of yer face.
Top tip! I shall try this next time. |

I love onions but dear god they hurt my eyes when cutting them 
cut the pointy ends off first and take it about a cm from where that joins the main bulbus bit of the onion. The bit that makes you cry is in these bits. |

I always do this too as it's the easiest method but not necessarily the most effective. if you're not completely blind without your specs then wearing a pair of swimming goggles as you chop ftw. other people i know swear by putting a lump of bread under their top lip - no idea if that one works! |

Add hard boiled eggs quartered at end of cooking in place of some veg or meat.
Or you can crack your eggs in the cooking vessel at simmering point then turn off the heat and allow the the residual heat to gently poach.Make sure you dont stir for 5 mins whilst the eggs coagulate (set)
If you add the raw eggs and stir you'll end up with scrambled eggs in your curry.

Oil in pan
Black mustard seeds - tea spoon
Paprika - tea spoon
Haldi (tumeirc) - tea spoon
onoin - one - large
garlic - 2 pieces of garlic crushed
Chillis - Depends how hot you like it and what chillis - 2/3 birds eye is what i go for
ginger - tea spoon full grated
tomatoes - 4 large
fry until onions are golden
Remove from pan and blend the lot
(if doing chicken add to pan now and seal)
back in the pan
Add bay leaf
a generous knob of creamed cocunt (40g ish)
tea spoon of tamarind paste
1/2 tea spoon of suger
decent pinch of salt (to flavour)
Add some water (not much - 1/4 pint) add more if it looks to dry as you go along
Cook this for 2 mins
Chop your boiled eggs in half now and place them in sunny side up to keep them together, take care stirring from now.
Cook for 5 mins
Add prawns - (raw are best) and cook for another 5 mins until prawns are cooked
To finish, 1 min before serving -
Add a good bunch coriander and stir in
Gara masala - tea spoon sprinkled over the entire curry, don't stir this in (its meant to have the uncooked taste and really finishes it brilliantly)
serve with rice and chilli pickle (pataks) and yoghurt, enjoy.
