Spiced Scrambled Eggs Recipes

SPICED SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Soften the onion and chilli in a knob of butter. Stir in the beaten eggs and a splash of milk. When nearly scrambled, gently stir in a good handful diced tomatoes followed by some coriander leaves. Season and eat on toast.

SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Put butter or oil in a skillet, preferably nonstick, and turn heat to medium-high. Add garlic, ginger, scallions, chile and a sprinkling of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until garlic begins to color, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for about 5 minutes.
• Beat eggs lightly with a little more salt and pepper. Return pan to medium-high heat and add eggs. Stir occasionally, until curds begin to form, then remove from heat and stir to break up curds. Return to heat and repeat, stirring occasionally until mixture begins to clump. Cook and stir until eggs are creamy and thick but not dry: they will continue to cook under their own heat after you remove them from pan, so stop a moment short of your desired consistency.
• Stir in cilantro and serve immediately.

SPICY POTATOES AND SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Poke potatoes with a fork so that their skins are pierced. Microwave potatoes on high until cooked inside. When potatoes are fully cooked, peel potatoes and cut potatoes to 1/8 size or to your liking. Set potatoes aside.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil to skillet and scramble 3 eggs. Add salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm until potatoes are ready.
• In another skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil until hot. Then add salt, cumin, coriander and turmeric powder. Put in chili powder if you want it really spicy. Add potatoes and cook until potatoes are crispy and brown. Spicy potatoes and scrambled eggs are now ready to serve!

SPICED EGGS WITH TZATZIKI

Steps:

• Toast cumin in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing, until slightly darkened and fragrant, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl; let cool. Mix in sea salt and Aleppo-style pepper; set aside.
• Mix yogurt, cucumber, garlic, chopped mint, and ¾ tsp. kosher salt in a medium bowl; set tzatziki aside.
• Whisk eggs, cream, and remaining 1 tsp. kosher salt in another medium bowl until very well combined. Heat butter in a medium nonstick skillet over medium until starting to foam. Add curry powder and cook, stirring, until fragrant and darkened in color, about 10 seconds. Pour in egg mixture and let eggs cook, undisturbed, until edges have just set, then scramble, tilting pan and turning eggs over onto themselves, until just cooked through, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer eggs to a plate. Spoon reserved tzatziki alongside. Top with mint leaves, parsley leaves, and dill sprigs; sprinkle reserved spice mixture over.
• Do Ahead: Tzatziki (without mint and cucumber) can be made 1 week ahead (the garlic flavor will intensify as it sits). Cover and chill.

SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Put a large, preferably nonstick, frying pan on medium heat and add the oil, cumin seeds, caraway seeds, onion, ginger and chilli. Cook, stirring occasionally, for eight minutes, until the onion is soft but not coloured.
• Add the ground spices, tomato paste and three-quarters of a teaspoon of salt, and cook, stirring, for two minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for eight to 10 minutes, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Now tip in the beaten eggs and immediately reduce the heat to medium-low. Very gently, but continuously, scrape the base of the pan with a wooden spatula - what you're after here are large, curd-like folds of soft and very moist egg. Cook for around three minutes in total.
• Serve the eggs piping hot, and sprinkled with the chopped spring onion, coriander and a scattering of chilli flakes.

SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a bowl, add the half-and-half and whisk until smooth. Add the salt, pepper and hot sauce and whisk until well combined.
• Heat a nonstick skillet (cast iron if you have it) on low heat, and add the butter. Pour the eggs into the skillet. Using a heat resistant rubber spatula, stir the egg mixture over low heat to create soft creamy curds. Cook to light and fluffy.

SPICED LENTILS AND SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the cumin, paprika, oregano, allspice, nutmeg, bell peppers, onion, 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and starting to caramelize in spots, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the capers and garlic and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the lentils and 2 cups water to the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are just tender and the water has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Push the lentils around the edges of the pan, making a circle in the center about 6 inches in diameter. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and heat over medium-low heat. Add the eggs and cook, gently pushing them back and forth with a rubber spatula as they begin to set, until softly scrambled, 6 to 8 minutes. (It's ok if some of the lentils get into the eggs while they are cooking. Everything is going to be combined in the end anyway!)
• Fold the lentils into the eggs along with the tomatoes and olives. Divide among bowls and garnish with basil if using. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

SPICY SCRAMBLED EGGS WITH CHAPATIS

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a pan, then cook onions for 1 min. Add the spices and cook for 30 seconds, stirring.
• Add the tomatoes, eggs and yogurt, then cook, stirring, for about 4 mins until scrambled. Season to taste.
• Spoon one quarter of the mixture onto one quarter of a warmed chapati. Fold in half, then in half again to make a triangle. Repeat with the remaining mixture and chapatis. Serve immediately, garnished with a little of the coriander.

AKURI (SPICED SCRAMBLED EGGS)

Steps:

• Beat the eggs lightly with the milk, salt, pepper and chopped cilantro.
• Heat butter,or ghee, in a large skillet and saute the chopped onions until they begin to color.
• Add the chiles, ginger, red pepper, turmeric and cumin.
• Stir over medium heat for about 2 minutes.
• Raise the heat slightly and pour in the beaten eggs.
• Stir constantly until the eggs are just set but still creamy.
• Serve immediately with chapatis.

INDIAN SPICED SCRAMBLED EGGS

Steps:

• Place the potato in a saucepan with salted water to cover. Bring to a boil over high heat and boil for 4 minutes. Add the cauliflower and boil for 1 minute more. Drain the vegetables.
• Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 3 tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion, and cook until soft. Add the potato, cauliflower, spices, and a dash of salt. Decrease the heat to medium and sauté for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, transfer the vegetable mixture to a large bowl, and cover. Return the skillet to the stove.
• Crack the eggs into a bowl and add 2 tablespoons water and 3 dashes of salt. Whisk for 2 minutes, tilting the bowl as you whisk to whip as much air into the eggs as possible. Heat the skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. When the oil is hot, pour in the eggs. Allow them to begin to set before stirring, then gently push the eggs toward the center of the pan with a wooden spoon. Tilt the pan to evenly distribute the uncooked eggs. When the eggs are just firm, flip them over and cook for 25 seconds more.
• Transfer the eggs to the bowl of vegetables and stir to mix. Taste and season with salt. Serve immediately.
