Masala Omelette — the dish that saves the day when the fridge has eggs and ten minutes. About 40 minutes from fridge to table.

Prep 15 min Cook 25 min Serves 3 Easy

Ingredients

  • Garam Masala1/2 tsp
  • Saltto taste
  • Onion1, chopped
  • Green Chili1
  • Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp
  • Eggs4
  • Neutral Oil2 tbsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil the eggs 9 minutes, cool in running water and peel; a light fry in the hot oil gives them a golden jacket.

  2. 2

    Fry the onions to a deep gold, then the ginger-garlic, until the raw smell lifts.

  3. 3

    Build the masala with the tomatoes and spices, bhunao-ing until the oil separates.

  4. 4

    Add water for a gravy (or keep it dry as the name promises) and slip the eggs back in for 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Rest 5 minutes before serving — eggs drink sauce slowly.

Chef's tip

A pinch of salt in the boiling water keeps the shells from cracking early.
