Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Crack the eggs into a bowl, add a pinch of the salt and beat lightly.

  2. 2

    Heat the oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 20-30 seconds.

  3. 3

    Add the onion and green chilli and cook until soft but not coloured, 3-4 min.

  4. 4

    Add the tomato and the rest of the salt. Cook until it softens to a jammy mass and oil shows at the edges, 3-4 min.

  5. 5

    Stir in the turmeric, chilli powder and garam masala and cook for 30 seconds.

  6. 6

    Lower the heat and pour in the eggs. Stir slowly, pushing from the bottom of the pan, until soft curds form, 2-3 min.

  7. 7

    Turn off the heat while the curds still look a little wet; the pan finishes them.

  8. 8

    Fold in the cilantro and lemon juice and serve hot.
