Ingredients

1/3 cup / 75 ml raw cashews
2 tbsp / 30 ml butter or ghee
1 small onion, finely chopped
2 large cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp / 15 ml grated fresh ginger
1 tsp / 5 ml each garam masala and paprika
1/2 tsp / 2 ml each turmeric and salt
1 pinch each cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
1 can / 398 ml crushed tomatoes (approx 1.5 cups)
1 pouch / 264 g EGGS2go! Omega 3 Hard Boiled 6 Pack Pouch
chopped fresh cilantro
Cooked basmati rice, peas and warm naan (optional)

Directions

  1. Soak cashews in 1 cup/250 ml boiling water for 30 minutes. Drain cashews; transfer to a blender and blend with 1/4 cup/50 ml fresh cold water until creamy.

  2. Heat butter in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add onion; cook for 5 minutes or until golden. Stir in garlic, ginger, garam masala, paprika, cinnamon and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes.

  3. Add tomatoes and the cashew cream; simmer, stirring often for 8 minutes or until thickened.

  4. Add eggs, spooning sauce over top. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or just until warmed through. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with rice, peas and warm naan (if desired).

Tips

  1. Cashew cream can be made ahead and reserved in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

  2. For a nut-free option, replace cashew cream with 1/3 cup/75 ml 35% whipping cream.

Tips: Whipping

If you over beat egg whites and they're too stiff, gently stir in 1 or 2 unbeaten whites to every 5 or 6 whites or add a few teaspoons of sugar and beat again briefly until they are smooth.
