Recipe
1
Heat pure ghee in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat.
2
Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn translucent and soft.
3
Stir in the ginger-garlic paste and green chilies, cooking for another minute until the raw aroma disappears.
4
Add the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt, cooking until the tomatoes turn soft and release their oils.
5
Crack the eggs directly into the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
6
Using a spatula, gently stir and scramble the eggs continuously so they remain soft, moist, and creamy rather than dry.
7
Sprinkle the garam masala and fresh coriander leaves over the eggs, give a final gentle toss, and remove from heat.
8
Serve the warm, spiced Akuri immediately alongside toasted, buttered pav buns.
