Ingredients

  • 2 Spring Onions chopped
  • 2 tsp Sunflower Oil
  • 1/2 tsp Turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp Garam Masala
  • 1 Large Tomato diced
  • 1 Green Chilli finely chopped
  • 4 Large Free-Range Eggs
  • Salt & Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the chopped spring onions and saute until they are slightly browned.
  • Add the turmeric and garam masala to the spring onions, and cook out until the masala smells good. This should take 2-3 minutes.
  • Add the chopped tomatoes and diced green chili to the pan and cook until the tomatoes are soft and mushy.
  • Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a mixing bowl and beat them until the yolks and whites are well combined. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Lower the heat of the frying pan and pour in the beaten egg mixture.
  • Using a spatula, scramble the eggs until they are just cooked through and fluffy. If you prefer firmer scrambled eggs, feel free to cook them longer.
  • Garnish the masala eggs with chopped spring onion or fresh coriander leaves.
  • Serve with hot buttery toast or flaky paratha, and a hot cup of masala chai.

Notes

  • You can store leftover masala eggs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave or stovetop and ensure it is piping hot before serving.
  • Optional additions: diced peppers, mushrooms, spinach, grated cheddar cheese.
