Ingredients

• ▢ 100 ml Olive Oil
• ▢ 2 Potatoes
• ▢ 2 Onions
• ▢ 2 Tomatoes
• ▢ 1 tsp Salt
• ▢ 1 tsp Chilli Powder
• ▢ 2 tsp Turmeric Powder Haldi
• ▢ 2 Green Chillies
• ▢ 5 Eggs
• ▢ 100 ml Water
• ▢ Coriander

Instructions

• Heat the oil in pan on medium heat
• Add the finely sliced onions and cook for 3-4 minutes on medium heat until softened and golden brown ensuring that you stir continuously so the onions do not stick to the pan
• Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for a further 3-4 minutes until softened
• Add the salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder and green chilies then cook the spices for 3-4 minutes
• Peel the potatoes and cut into bite-size chunks – sometimes I leave the skin of the potatoes, but it is up to personal preference
• Add the potatoes along with the water and bring to a gentle boil before covering with a lid to allow to simmer on low heat for 15-20 minutes
• Crack the eggs into the curry then gently mix into the curry and cook for 3-4 minutes on low heat until the eggs are cooked through
• Add the finely chopped coriander then mix to combine
• Serve with chapatti or naan bread then enjoy!
