If you want a super healthy, flavoursome AND nourishing meal, then this egg curry recipe might just be for you!
It has a fresh tomato base, with a fragrant mix of spices. There are no heavy oils used in this recipe, making it a light and bright midweek meal option.
You will see that this recipe includes scallions and Hing, in the place of onions and garlic. If you are not strictly following FODMAP, then you can use the same quantity of onion and 6 garlic cloves in the place of hing powder.
Hing comes from the resin of fennel plants and has a strong sulphur odor that fades to a pleasant flavour during cooking. It is used in ayurvedic medicine to aid digestion and reduce gas. If you've never cooked with hing powder before, maybe start with 1 teaspoon and adjust according to taste.
If you want to convert this into a vegan recipe, you could try swapping out the egg for tofu. Firm tofu works extremely well!
