This egg curry for IBS is

  • 💚 Free from onion and garlic

  • 💪 High in protein

  • 🥣 Cooked in soothing spices

  • 🌿 Gentle on your gut and delicious enough for the whole family

Let me share how to make this clean, healing egg curry that won’t hurt your stomach — and might just become your new favorite dinner.

Why Egg Curry for IBS Can Be a Great Gut Meal (If Made Right)

Boiled eggs are:

  • A complete protein

  • Easy to digest (especially the whites)

  • Hormone-friendly and blood sugar stabilizing

But the usual curry base — with onion, garlic, heavy oil and spice — triggers:

  • Gas

  • Acidity

  • Cramps

  • IBS flares

So we switch the base to a tomato + ginger + spice blend that supports digestion and doesn’t trigger inflammation.
