Ingredients

  • 3 Eggs
  • 1/2 Cup Roughly Sliced Onion
  • 1 Cup Tomato (chopped)
  • 1/2 Cup Roughly Chopped Green Bell Pepper
  • 2 Teaspoon Minced Garlic

  • Salt and Pepper (to taste)
  • 1 Tablespoon Oil

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add the roughly sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion begins to soften, about 30–45 seconds.

  4. Sprinkle in the coriander powder, roasted cumin powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well.
  5. Sauté for another minute until fragrant and tender.
  6. Make a well in the center of the pan and crack the eggs into it. Cover the pan and cook for 2–3 minutes, until cooked to your liking.
  7. Remove from heat and sprinkle with chopped coriander leaves. Serve immediately.

Notes

You can substitute green bell pepper for red or yellow for sweetness. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 48 hours.
