This is a traditional Cape Malay recipe for a classic simple curry of eggs in a light curry sauce.
Ingredients:
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 tbsp sunflower oil
1 small tomato, finely chopped
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp ground cumin seeds
1/2 tsp ground coriander seeds
1/2 tsp hot chilli powder
salt, to taste
1/2 tsp
garam masala
8 eggs
2 tbsp coriander leaves, shredded
Method:
Heat the oil in a pan, add the onion and fry gently for about 8 minutes, or until golden brown in colour. Add the tomato and scatter over the spices then stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer then form eight indentations in the tomato mix and crack the eggs into these.
Continue cooking until the eggs are set, scooping over the hot sauce to baste the eggs as they cook.
Carefully lift the mixture onto four warmed plates, garnish with the coriander leaves and serve immediately accompanied by puris.
