Best Indian Spiced Scrambled Eggs Recipes

AKOORI (INDIAN SCRAMBLED EGGS)

Steps:

• Heat a large frying pan over a low-medium heat and add the butter. Gently fry the onion, chilli and garlic until the onion is soft - about 5 mins. Add the spices and cook for 1-2 mins more, stirring around the pan until aromatic.
• Add the tomatoes, cook for 1 min, then pour in the eggs and lower the heat. Stir slowly to scramble the eggs as they cook, and remove from the heat while they are still a little runny. Continue stirring off the heat for 1 min more until the eggs are just set.
• Stir through the coriander and serve with chapatis for a delicious breakfast or brunch.

ANDA BHURJI (SPICY INDIAN SCRAMBLED EGGS) RECIPE

Steps:

• In a 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onions and stir until softened, about 5-6 minutes. Add tomatoes, mix well, and cook until most of the excess moisture has evaporated, about 1 minute.
• Add green chiles and ginger-garlic paste, and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add red chile powder and turmeric powder, and stir until oil separates from the paste, about 30 seconds, taking care not to burn the paste.
• Turn the heat to low. Add eggs and salt and gently stir until the mixture begins to form soft curds, about 1 minute. Increase the heat to high and vigorously stir the mixture, breaking bigger clumps of egg apart. Add 1 teaspoon of butter, and stir until melted. Stir in half of the cilantro. Remove from heat, and serve immediately, garnishing with remaining cilantro and butter. Serve with lightly toasted bread.

INDIAN SPICED SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the potato in a saucepan with salted water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and boil for 4 minutes. Add the cauliflower and boil for 1 minute more. Drain the vegetables.
• Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 3 tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion, and cook until soft. Add the potato, cauliflower, spices, and a dash of salt. Decrease the heat to medium and sauté for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl, and cover. Return the skillet to the stove.
• Crack the eggs into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons water and 3 dashes of salt. Whisk for 2 minutes, tilting the bowl as you whisk to whip as much air into the eggs as possible. Heat the skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. When the oil is hot, pour in the eggs. Allow them to begin to set before stirring, then gently push the eggs toward the center of the pan with a wooden spoon. Tilt the pan to evenly distribute the uncooked eggs. When the eggs are just firm, flip them over and cook for 25 seconds more.
• Transfer the eggs to the bowl of vegetables and stir to mix. Taste and season with salt. Serve immediately.

INDIAN SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Fry the onion, garlic and chilli until the onions are translucent.
• Add mustard seeds, turmeric and garam masala and stir fry for 2-3 minutes.
• Add the chopped tomatoes and keep cooking, stirring regularly, until tomatoes start to break up.
• Pour beaten eggs into the pan, season with salt and cook, stirring constantly, until they are done.
• You can serve this garnished with fresh, finely chopped coriander leaves.
• Note: You can use less garlic than the recipe indicates if you don't like it that much, or even cut it out. I don't always have chillies on hand, so I leave them out - all this means is that the eggs will be slightly less spicy, but will still taste really nice.
