Cook the Eggs: Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add a little oil. Pour in the whisked eggs and cook until fully set. Once cooked, remove from the pan and set aside.

Sauté the Spices: In the same pan, add more oil as needed. Sauté the spice paste along with the bruised lemongrass, galangal, and bay leaves until fragrant.
