Goan Egg Bhurji

Traditional 19. Goan Egg Bhurji recipe

🧺 Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 1 medium onion, finely chopped
• 2 green chillies, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 medium tomato, finely chopped
• ½ tsp turmeric
• ½ tsp red chilli powder
• 1 tsp garam masala
• 2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
• 2 tbsp coconut oil

👩‍🍳 How to make Goan Egg Bhurji

1. Beat eggs (2 mins, no heat): Whisk eggs with salt until frothy and uniform in colour.
2. Fry aromatics (4 mins, medium heat): Heat coconut oil. Add onions, garlic — sauté until soft and golden. Add green chillies, tomatoes. Cook until tomatoes break down — 3 mins.
3. Add spices (1 min, medium heat): Add turmeric, chilli powder. Fry 1 min until fragrant and oil turns orange-red.
4. Scramble eggs (4 mins, low-medium heat): Pour in beaten eggs. Do not stir immediately — wait 30 seconds, then gently fold with spatula. Continue folding slowly — eggs should form large, soft, creamy curds. Remove from heat while still slightly wet as they continue cooking.
5. Finish: Add garam masala and coriander. Serve hot with poi or bread.
