Recipe
1
Heat ghee or butter in a pan over medium heat and sauté the chopped onions until translucent and lightly golden.
2
Add the ginger-garlic paste and chopped green chilies, cooking for another minute until the raw aroma disappears.
3
Stir in the chopped tomatoes, turmeric powder, red chili powder, cumin powder, and salt. Cook until the tomatoes are soft and oil begins to separate.
4
Crack the eggs directly into the pan and reduce the heat to low.
5
Gently stir and scramble the eggs continuously, keeping them soft and moist rather than dry.
6
Fold in the fresh coriander leaves just before turning off the heat.
7
Serve hot immediately with buttered pav or soft artisanal bread.
