Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the boiled egg

Place 1 boiled egg (cut in half lengthwise) in a small pan with 1-2 tablespoons of cooking oil over medium heat. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of red chili powder on the egg. Baste the egg with hot oil using a spoon and flip it at 0:05, continuing to baste until it starts to get a light golden crust, about 1 minute total.

Step 2: Add raw egg and initial toppings

Crack 1 raw egg into the pan next to the boiled egg. Immediately add 1/4 cup of chopped onions (at 0:14), 1/4 teaspoon of salt (at 0:18), 1/2 teaspoon of cumin seeds (at 0:20), 5-6 curry leaves (at 0:23), and 1 tablespoon of chopped coriander leaves (at 0:26) over the raw egg.

Step 3: Form the omelette

Allow the raw egg to cook for about 1-2 minutes until the edges start to set. At 0:28, carefully flip the raw egg mixture over the boiled egg, encasing it to form an omelette. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.

Step 4: Garnish and finish cooking

At 0:32, sprinkle more chopped onions, chopped coriander leaves (at 0:33), and red chili powder (at 0:35) on top of the cooked omelette. At 0:39, flip the omelette again and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the other side is also golden brown and cooked through.

Step 5: Serve

At 0:43, flip the omelette one last time, then remove the egg fry from the pan and serve hot.

Pro Tips

Ensure the oil is hot before adding the boiled egg to get a good sear.

Adjust spice levels according to your preference.

Cook on medium-low heat to ensure the egg cooks through without burning.

Recipe Variations

Add chopped green chilies for extra heat.

Include other vegetables like bell peppers or tomatoes.

Serve with a sprinkle of black pepper for a different flavor profile.
