Instructions
- Prepare the Curry Tomato Mixture: In a microwavable bowl, combine grape tomatoes, grapeseed oil, garlic powder, dry mustard, curry powder, garam masala, chili powder, and fresh lemon juice. Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices coat the tomatoes evenly.
- Cook the Tomatoes: Microwave the tomato mixture for 1 to 1 ½ minutes. Stir the mixture, then continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until the tomatoes reach your preferred tenderness. Once cooked, set the mixture aside.
- Whisk Eggs and Milk: In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until they are well blended and slightly frothy.
- Cook the Scrambled Eggs: Microwave the egg mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval to encourage even cooking and fluffiness. Continue this process for about 2 1/2 minutes or until eggs are fully set and cooked through.
- Plate and Combine: Fluff the cooked eggs and plate them. Spoon the warm curry tomato mixture over the eggs. Sprinkle salt to taste if desired.
- Serve: Serve the dish warm, optionally accompanied by bread and a dollop of yogurt to complement the spicy tomato topping.
