Directions

Step 1

Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk gently until combined, then set aside.

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet or pan over medium heat.

Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 7

Pour in 1 cup of water and stir well. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.

Step 8

Slowly pour the beaten eggs into the gravy, stirring gently to form strands or curds. Do not overmix, as the eggs should remain soft.

Turn off the heat and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.

Step 11
