Egg curry

My dad who never ate his food without fish curry has recently stopped eating fish and meat. He claims to have turned into an ovo vegetarian or eggetarian. He prepares a typical fish gravy and adds boiled eggs to it instead of fish. This curry he says has helped him in his transition from a strict non vegetarian to an eggetarian.
