METHOD:

  • Crack the eggs into a glass mixing bowl and beat them until they become frothy and  become a pale yellow color. A fork works as well as a wire whisk to beat the eggs. Do NOT add salt this time because salt will cause the eggs to toughen.
  • Now add Onion, Green chillies, Ginger, Red chilly powder, Turmeric powder, Black pepper powder, Tomato, Garam masala and and mix well.
  • Now add Salt and mix well.
  • Heat oil in a medium-sized non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat to warm it up. Do not use a large pan because the eggs will spread out too thinly and cook very quickly, may be burn.
  • Pour the beaten egg-onion  mix with curry leaves to the pan and  scramble with a wooden spatula until the eggs are well done. Do not stir immediately. Wait until the first hint of setting begins.
  • Serve as a side dish with rice.
