Cook the Masala Thoroughly
Let the tomato and spice mix simmer until oil starts to separate as this brings out maximum flavour.
Crack Eggs Directly into the Masala
This lets the egg soak up the flavour as it scrambles ensuring no bland bites.
Use Coconut Oil for Depth
Adds a subtle richness and traditional aroma that elevates the dish.
Serve Immediately

How to make Egg Curry
Heat the Oil
In a non-stick pan, heat the coconut oil over medium heat.
Sauté the Onion
Add the chopped onion and cook for 2–3 minutes until soft and lightly golden.

Crack the eggs directly into the pan and stir continuously to scramble, mixing with the masala as it cooks.
