Serves 2 10 mins total Vegetarian

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ small red onion, finely diced
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 2cm piece of ginger, peeled and finely chopped
  • ½ tsp garam masala
  • ¼ tsp ground turmeric
  • ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
  • 6 cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 heaped tbsp frozen peas, defrosted
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • Coriander, finely chopped (optional)
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • 2 toasted sesame-seeded flour wraps, to serve

Method

  1. Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook gently for 5 minutes until softened.
  2. Stir in the garam masala, turmeric, and cayenne. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Add the cherry tomatoes and peas. Cook for 2 minutes, season with a little salt, then pour in the beaten eggs.
  4. Reduce the heat and stir briefly, then leave undisturbed for 1 minute. Gently fold to scramble. Remove from the heat just before fully set and continue folding until cooked through.
  5. Scatter with coriander (if using) and serve with the toasted wraps on the side — or roll them up for a quick portable meal.

Serving & storage

Tip: Best enjoyed fresh. If making ahead, prepare the spiced onion-tomato mix in advance and store in the fridge for up to 2 days — then just add eggs when ready to cook.
