Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 eggs, beaten
1 medium onion, chopped (or 4 spring onions)
4 -5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 chili pepper, finely chopped (optional)
2 medium tomatoes, blanched and chopped
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Fry the onion, garlic and chilli until the onions are translucent.
  • Add mustard seeds, turmeric and garam masala and stir fry for 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes and keep cooking, stirring regularly, until tomatoes start to break up.
  • Pour beaten eggs into the pan, season with salt and cook, stirring constantly, until they are done.
  • You can serve this garnished with fresh, finely chopped coriander leaves.
  • Note: You can use less garlic than the recipe indicates if you don't like it that much, or even cut it out. I don't always have chillies on hand, so I leave them out - all this means is that the eggs will be slightly less spicy, but will still taste really nice.
