Ingredients

2 eggs 1/2 onion, chopped 1/2 tomato, chopped 1/2 green chili, chopped (optional) 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder 1/4 teaspoon chili powder 1/4 teaspoon coriander powder 1/4 teaspoon garam masala Salt to taste Oil for cooking Chopped cilantro (optional) Toast or paratha (optional)

Instructions

Beat the eggs in a bowl until they are light and fluffy. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes soft. Add the chopped tomato and green chili if using, and cook until the tomato becomes soft as well. Stir in the turmeric powder, chili powder, coriander powder, and garam masala. Cook for a minute until fragrant. Pour the egg mixture into the pan and swirl it around to coat the bottom of the pan. Cover the pan to let the omelette cook for a minute or two until the bottom is set. Remove the lid and fold the omelette in half using a spatula. Cook for another minute or two until it is fully cooked through. Transfer the omelette to a serving plate, garnish with chopped cilantro if desired, and serve hot with toast or paratha.

Tips

You can adjust the amount of spices to your taste by adding more or less to the recipe. For a richer flavor, you can add a tablespoon of grated cheese to the egg mixture. Feel free to include other vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms for extra flavor and nutrients. Use a non-stick pan to prevent the omelette from sticking to the bottom of the pan. To ensure a fluffy omelette, avoid overcooking it. Cook it slightly soft in the center if preferred.
