Recipe
1
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them lightly with a fork until the yolks and whites are just combined. Do not overwhip.
2
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they turn translucent and soft.
3
Add the chopped green chillies and tomatoes to the pan. Cook until the tomatoes soften and blend into the onions, releasing their natural oils.
4
Sprinkle turmeric powder, red chilli powder, and salt into the pan, stirring well for a minute to release the aromas.
5
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the beaten eggs. Let them sit undisturbed for a few seconds before gently folding them with a spatula.
6
Continue to stir and fold the eggs gently, keeping them soft, creamy, and slightly moist rather than completely dry.
7
Turn off the heat, fold in the freshly chopped coriander leaves, and serve immediately alongside warm, buttered toast.
