Akuri (Parsi Style Scrambled Eggs)
Course: North Indian Breakfast
Cuisine: Parsi Recipes
Diet: Eggetarian

Description:
Akuri is a traditional Parsi dish, similar to scrambled eggs, often made for breakfast in Parsi homes. The eggs are not fully cooked like a typical scramble, and the addition of onions, tomatoes, and green chilies enhances its flavor.

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tomato, finely chopped
  • 2 green chilies, finely chopped
  • 6 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 tbsp cream
  • Salt, to taste
  • Fresh coriander, for garnish

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes

Instructions

  1. Start by finely chopping the onion, tomato, and green chilies, and set them aside.
  2. Crack all the eggs into a bowl, add salt and cream, and whisk them together well.
  3. Heat a pan and add the butter. Once the butter is hot, add the garlic, green chilies, and onion. Cook until the onions become soft.
  4. Once the onions are soft, add the chopped tomato and cook until the tomato softens as well.
  5. Now, add the egg and cream mixture to the pan. Cook for 1 minute. Stir everything together and cook for an additional minute.
  6. Be careful not to cook the eggs like a typical scrambled egg. The texture should be soft and creamy.
  7. Turn off the heat and garnish with fresh coriander before serving.

Enjoy your delicious Parsi-style Akuri!
