Spinach Coconut Turmeric Baked Eggs With Paratha Recipes

SPINACH, COCONUT & TURMERIC BAKED EGGS WITH PARATHA

Steps:

• For the paratha, combine the flour and 3/4 tsp salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the centre and pour in the ghee and 100ml lukewarm water. Combine, then add up to 50ml more lukewarm water to bring the mix together as a dough. Knead for 5 mins, then put in a lightly oiled bowl, cover and leave for 1 hr.
• For the baked eggs, heat the oil in a large frying pan or heatproof shallow casserole dish. Fry the onion with a pinch of salt over a medium heat for 15 mins or until golden. Lower the heat, add the ginger, garlic, most of the chillies and all the dried spices, and cook for 2 mins. Stir in the tomatoes and cook for a further 2 mins.
• Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a simmer, season to taste, then stir through the spinach. Once wilted, simmer, uncovered, for 5 mins. Remove from the heat.
• Divide the dough into four balls, and roll out into 18cm discs about 3mm thick, covering them with a damp tea towel as you work. Heat a pan over a medium heat. Melt a little ghee in the pan and cook the parathas one at a time for 1-2 mins on each side. Keep them warm in a low oven as you work.
• Heat the grill to medium. Make eight dips in the spinach mixture and crack an egg into each. Cover with a lid or tightly with foil, cook over a medium-low heat for 5 mins, then grill for a further 3-5 mins or until the white is set but the yolks runny. Finish with the reserved red chillies and coriander. Serve with the paratha on the side.

INDIAN-SPICED EGGS WITH SPINACH AND TURMERIC YOGURT

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix the yogurt and turmeric in a small bowl, season with salt and set aside. Toast the pitas on a sheet pan in the oven until they're warmed through and beginning to crisp, about 10 to 12 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic and chile and cook until softened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the garam masala and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds more. Begin adding in the spinach by the handful, tossing it frequently to encourage wilting. Gradually add more as it cooks down, about 6 to 8 minutes total. Season with salt.
• While the spinach cooks, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook until the undersides are crispy and the yolk is still runny, about 3 to 4 minutes.
