Indian Scrambled Eggs (1)

Folks, you're going to love this Indian scrambled eggs (or Anda Bhurji as it's known in India) recipe.

Indian scrambled eggs are one of my favourite weekend breakfasts.

This alternative eggs breakfast makes for a really nice and different scrambled egg option for Saturday or Sunday mornings.

Known in India also as these spicy scambled eggs are different from the Western worlds well known scrambled egg breakfast.

In this Indian eggs recipe an onion, tomato, chillies and spices are added which absolutely tantalises the tastebuds. I seriously recommend this dish!

Use 4 eggs and a large tomato for 2 people but keep the rest of the quantities the same.

Ingredients

  • Low calorie oil spray
  • ½ teaspoon cumin seeds
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger and garlic paste*
  • 1 medium tomato, chopped
  • 2 green chillies, finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon Finely chopped fresh coriander

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

  • Have a freshly boiled kettle of water ready to the side.

  • Spray the bottom of a non-stick frying pan with 5 sprays of the oil spray. Turn the heat up high until the spray begins to bubble on the surface of the pan, and then turn down the heat to a medium heat.

  • Add the cumin seeds and move them about in the pan to toast them and then add a splash of hot water.

  • Add the diced onion and stir constantly, for about 5 minutes, until it is softened adding drops of hot water if it sticks to the bottom of the pan.

  • Add the ginger and garlic paste, chopped tomato, green chillies, salt and turmeric to the pan. Stir constantly for 2 – 3 minutes adding drops of hot water if the mixture sticks to the bottom of the pan.

  • Add the beaten eggs and cook, stirring constantly until the eggs are scrambled and cooked.

  • Remove from the heat, garnish with the fresh coriander and serve.

Notes

*If you don't have ginger and garlic paste, a finely chopped garlic clove and similar sized grated piece of fresh ginger would do to substitute.
