Grind all the ingredients for the curry powder into a fine powder. Store in an air tight container.
Heat oil in a pan, add the fenugreek seeds and cinnamon sticks and cook till fragrant. Add the onions and green chilies; cook till the onions turn lightly browned around the edges, about 5~8 minutes.
Add the curry powder and cook for 30 seconds. Add the coconut milk, salt and turmeric.
Gently add the eggs and simmer, uncovered, basting the eggs very often, until the sauce starts to thicken, about 8~10 minutes.
Serve immediately, spooning the sauce over the eggs.
