👨🍳 Instrucciones

Prepare the aromatics: Finely chop the onion, tomato, and green chilies. Chop the fresh cilantro for garnish.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Temper the spices: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil or ghee in a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat (around 180°C / 350°F). Once the oil is shimmering, add the cumin seeds. Let them sizzle and turn golden brown, about 30 seconds, releasing their aroma.
⏱️ 1 minute - 3
Sauté the vegetables: Add the finely chopped onion to the pan. Sauté until the onions become translucent and slightly softened, about 3-4 minutes. Then, add the chopped green chilies and tomatoes. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and start to break down.
⏱️ 6 minutes - 4
Add the eggs: While the vegetables are cooking, crack the 4 eggs into a medium bowl. Add the turmeric powder and salt to taste. Whisk vigorously until the egg yolks and whites are well combined and slightly frothy.
⏱️ 1 minute - 5
Scramble the eggs: Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Let the eggs set slightly around the edges for about 15-20 seconds, then gently stir and fold them with a spatula, breaking them into smaller curds. Continue to cook, stirring and folding, until the eggs are just set but still moist and fluffy. Be careful not to overcook, as this will result in dry eggs. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
⏱️ 3 minutes - 6
Finish and serve: Remove the pan from the heat immediately once the eggs reach your desired consistency. Stir in most of the chopped fresh cilantro. Garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve hot, traditionally with pav (Indian bread rolls) or toast.
