Prepare the dough by mixing all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

Add melted butter and water to the flour mixture, knead until smooth, and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Chop onion, green chilies, garlic, and ginger finely.

Heat oil in a pan over medium heat, add onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until translucent.

Add green chilies and curry leaves, then stir in turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper, cooking for 2-3 minutes.

Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly before adding boiled and chopped eggs.

Divide the rested dough into small balls and roll each into a circle.

Place a spoonful of the egg filling in the center of each dough circle.

Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape and seal the edges by pressing down.

Heat oil in a deep pan for frying or preheat the oven to 375°F for baking.

If frying, carefully drop the patties into hot oil and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

If baking, place patties on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and crisp.

Remove from oil or oven and drain on paper towels before serving.
