Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion, crushed garlic, and grated ginger. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent.
-
Step 2.
Add the grated cauliflower, ground turmeric, and ground coriander to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes.
-
Step 3.
While the vegetables cook, crack the eggs into a large jug. Add salt and pepper, then beat with a fork until well combined.
-
Step 4.
Reduce the heat under the pan to low. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook, stirring continuously, until the eggs are scrambled to your desired doneness. For a traditional dry texture, cook until all moisture has evaporated and the eggs are granular; for a softer texture, cook just until set.
-
Step 5.
Divide the scrambled eggs among serving plates. Garnish with finely chopped tomato and fresh coriander. Serve hot with toast or fried bread, and ketchup or chilli sauce on the side.
