Gather Your Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 slices of white bread
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric
- ¼ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon diced tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon diced onion (choose from scallions, shallots, white, yellow, or red onion)
- 1 tablespoon small chopped green chiles
- A handful of chopped small cilantro leaves
Let’s Get Cooking!
Beat those eggs in a bowl and season with salt, pepper, turmeric, and chili powder. Heat the butter over medium-high heat in a pan or skillet, then add the onions, tomatoes, and chiles. Let them cook for 30 seconds, stirring occasionally.
The Magic Happens
Add the eggs to the pan and let them spread out like an omelette. Cook for 30 seconds, then place one slice of bread on one side of the pan and let it get coated with the eggs. Flip it over, then repeat with the second bread slice on the other side of the pan. Let it cook for a few seconds, then flip the whole thing over.
The Final Touches
Let the omelette cook face down for 10-20 seconds, then flip again. Add some chopped cilantro leaves on top of one of the bread slices, then close the sandwich by flipping the other slice over it. Let it cook for another 10-20 seconds, then flip one last time and turn off the heat. Let it finish cooking in the pan for a few more seconds.
Serve and Enjoy!
Slice it up and serve with your favorite chutney, hot sauce, or condiments. This egg-straordinary breakfast sandwich is sure to become a staple in your kitchen!
