SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS



Spicy Scrambled Eggs image

By most, the humble egg is not considered substantial dinner fare, but these spicy scrambled eggs, which are incredible on their own, make a satisfying meal when piled into a burrito, teamed with rice and beans. Bittman's cooking technique, borrowed from Jeans-Georges Vongerichten, calls for combining the eggs with butter in a cold saucepan then cooking until creamy and soft - not unlike loose oatmeal - with small curds throughout.

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     breakfast, dinner, easy, quick, main course, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons butter or neutral oil, like corn or canola
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/2 cup trimmed and roughly chopped scallions
1 jalapeño or other fresh chile, stemmed, seeded and minced, or to taste
Salt and pepper to taste
8 eggs
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Put butter or oil in a skillet, preferably nonstick, and turn heat to medium-high. Add garlic, ginger, scallions, chile and a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic begins to color, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes.
  • Beat eggs lightly with a little more salt and pepper. Return pan to medium-high heat and add eggs. Stir occasionally, until curds begin to form, then remove from heat and stir to break up curds. Return to heat and repeat, stirring occasionally until mixture begins to clump. Cook and stir until eggs are creamy and thick but not dry: they will continue to cook under their own heat after you remove them from pan, so stop a moment short of your desired consistency.
  • Stir in cilantro and serve immediately.

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

TURKISH SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH SPICY TOMATOES AND CAPERS (MENEMEN)



Turkish Scrambled Eggs With Spicy Tomatoes and Capers (Menemen) image

Fabulous recipe from Milk Street TV, mildly-adapted for ingredients more readily available in the U.S. (cf. poblano peppers). It might remind you a tad of Shakshuka, only with scrambled eggs. If you can't find aleppo pepper, it's worth ordering on line, as it has a wonderful fruity flavor without a lot of heat.

Provided by lecole54

Categories     Southwest Asia (middle East)

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 tablespoons olive oil, extra virgin, divided, plus more to serve
2 poblano chiles, stemmed, seeded and finely chopped
1 bunch scallion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon aleppo pepper or 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
kosher salt, to taste
white pepper, to taste
1 plum tomato, cored and finely chopped
2 tablespoons capers, drained
8 large eggs
1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled
3 tablespoons dill, chopped

Steps:

  • In a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil until shimmering. Add the poblanos, scallions, garlic, Aleppo pepper, and ½ teaspoon each salt and white pepper. Cover and cook, stirring, until the chilies are softened but not browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the tomatoes and capers; set aside. Wipe out the skillet.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs and ¾ teaspoon salt. Return the skillet to medium and heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil until shimmering. Pour the eggs into the center of the pan. Using a silicone spatula, continuously stir the eggs, pushing them toward the middle as they set at the edges and folding the cooked egg over on itself. Cook until just set, about 1½ minutes. The curds should be shiny, wet and soft. Taste and season with salt and pepper, then divide among warmed serving plates.
  • Top each serving with a portion of the poblano mixture. Sprinkle with feta and dill, then drizzle with oil.

INDIAN SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS



Indian Spicy Scrambled Eggs image

I found this recipe in an Indian cookbook and adapted it a little bit to suit our tastes. My fiance calls this the best way of making scrambled eggs. Scrumptious!

Provided by melle_escaton

Categories     Breakfast

Time 30m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 eggs, beaten
1 medium onion, chopped (or 4 spring onions)
4 -5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 chili pepper, finely chopped (optional)
2 medium tomatoes, blanched and chopped
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
salt, to taste

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.

MENEMEN (SPICY TURKISH SCRAMBLED EGGS)



Menemen (Spicy Turkish Scrambled Eggs) image

This has become a regular for me. I make it whenever I'm cooking breakfast just for myself (my family's not a big fan of the chilies and tomatoes mixed in with the eggs, but I love it). It might look like a pile of slop, but it tastes soooooo good! Seed the chilies if you fear the heat. Either way, these make a delicious breakfast, served with toast or, ideally, Turkish bread.

Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Yield 8 eggs, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons sunflower oil
3/4 teaspoon cumin seed
1/2 teaspoon caraway seed
1 small onion, peeled and finely diced
10 g piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1 medium red chili, finely chopped
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/2 teaspoon tomato paste
salt, to taste
4 medium tomatoes, peeled and cut into 2cm dice (300g net weight)
8 medium eggs, beaten
3 spring onions, finely sliced
10 g coriander, chopped
1/2 teaspoon urfa chili flakes (or ¼ tsp regular chilli flakes)

Steps:

  • Put a large, preferably nonstick, frying pan on medium heat and add the oil, cumin seeds, caraway seeds, onion, ginger and chilli. Cook, stirring occasionally, for eight minutes, until the onion is soft but not coloured.
  • Add the ground spices, tomato paste and three-quarters of a teaspoon of salt, and cook, stirring, for two minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for eight to 10 minutes, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Now tip in the beaten eggs and immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Very gently, but continuously, scrape the base of the pan with a wooden spatula - what you're after here are large, curd-like folds of soft and very moist egg. Cook for around three minutes in total.
  • Serve the eggs piping hot, and sprinkled with the chopped spring onion, coriander and a scattering of chilli flakes.
