Tawa Egg & Pepper Fry

Start by boiling the eggs. Please refer to the post for my tips on boiling eggs.

While the eggs are boiling, you can chop the garlic and slice the onions and bell peppers. Also prepare the spice blend .

Once the eggs are boiled, cool them and peel them. Using a sharp knife, cut the egg into halves.

In a large cast iron skillet or tawa, on medium heat, melt the butter. Layer the egg halves cool side down. Sprinkle ¼ teaspoon salt to season the eggs.

Without disturbing, let the eggs fry for 3-4 minutes until the yolk and egg edges are golden. Using a flat spatula or a large spoon, flip the eggs and let fry on the other side as well.

Once the eggs are nicely fried, add garlic, onion and bell pepper, serrano all at once and using a spatula gently mix for 10-20 seconds.

Sprinkle the dry spice blend and tomato sauce. Gently mix and continue frying fir another 30-40 seconds or so taking care as much as possible to not pop out the yolks.

Finish with chopped cilantro and if you want you can add extra butter. Serve immediately.

Variations
