Spicy Scrambled Eggs- The Indian Way

Background: If you've ever gotten tired of plain old scrambled eggs give this one a try for your next weekend brunch. Plus, if you don't like bread or have a slightly stale one, then this dish is a surefire way of filling you up without the guilt of too many calories. Emilie stares at sliced bread like it is the worst invention on earth. So I have to disguise it amidst the egg in this dish for her to get a balanced meal. After all this website is inspired by her taste palette.

INGREDIENTS:
1- egg
1/2 c. liquid egg-white or egg beaters
1 slice of whole grain bread
1/4 c. onions, finely chopped
Salt to taste
A pinch of finely chopped garlic (1/2 a clove) or garlic chives
1 tsp. oil or butter
A pinch of black pepper
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper or chilli powder
A pinch of turmeric (optional)
1 tsp. finely chopped chives or cilantro

METHOD:
• Dice the bread into little cubes after discarding the edges.
• Beat the egg and the egg whites in a deep bowl with a fork or beater.
• Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and fry the chopped onions till they turn pinkish-brown.
• Add the garlic and egg-mix to the onions. Start scrambling the eggs immediately. Add salt to taste.
• Add the diced bread while the egg is still half cooked and mix well until everything is cooked. Add the cayenne pepper/chilli powder and turmeric. Toss well.
• Serve hot with a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper and a sprinkle of finely chopped chives or cilantro.
