Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons (30ml) vegetable oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 medium tomatoes, finely chopped
3 green chile peppers, slit lengthwise
2 teaspoons ginger-garlic paste (see note)
1 teaspoon red chile powder
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder

Salt

INDIAN SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS



Indian Spicy Scrambled Eggs image

I found this recipe in an Indian cookbook and adapted it a little bit to suit our tastes. My fiance calls this the best way of making scrambled eggs. Scrumptious!

Provided by melle_escaton

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.

INDIAN SPICED SCRAMBLED EGGS



Indian Spiced Scrambled Eggs image

Categories     Sauce     Egg     Boil

Yield serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 Yukon Gold potato, peeled and diced
2 cups cauliflower florets
5 tablespoons olive oil
1 yellow onion, diced
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt
6 eggs

Steps:

  • Place the potato in a saucepan with salted water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and boil for 4 minutes. Add the cauliflower and boil for 1 minute more. Drain the vegetables.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 3 tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion, and cook until soft. Add the potato, cauliflower, spices, and a dash of salt. Decrease the heat to medium and sauté for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl, and cover. Return the skillet to the stove.
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons water and 3 dashes of salt. Whisk for 2 minutes, tilting the bowl as you whisk to whip as much air into the eggs as possible. Heat the skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. When the oil is hot, pour in the eggs. Allow them to begin to set before stirring, then gently push the eggs toward the center of the pan with a wooden spoon. Tilt the pan to evenly distribute the uncooked eggs. When the eggs are just firm, flip them over and cook for 25 seconds more.
  • Transfer the eggs to the bowl of vegetables and stir to mix. Taste and season with salt. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For a spicier scramble, use hotter peppers or add a pinch of cayenne pepper.
  • If you don't have any fresh ginger, you can use 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger instead.
  • For a vegetarian version of this dish, omit the eggs and add an extra 1/2 cup of chopped vegetables.
  • Serve the scrambled eggs with warm tortillas, roti, or paratha.

Conclusion:

This spicy Indian-style scrambled eggs recipe is a quick and easy way to make a delicious and satisfying breakfast or brunch. The combination of spices and vegetables gives the eggs a unique and flavorful taste. Serve with your favorite sides for a complete meal.
