Turmeric Scrambled Eggs
I’m always looking for ways to incorporate turmeric into my diet due to its amazing healing and anti-inflammatory properties.
Ayurvedically speaking, eggs can be heavy and tamasic, so it’s best to only consume a couple a week (especially true for Kapha dosha).
However, adding green chilli, garlic, and turmeric will bring a pungent and light guna, making eggs lighter on the digestion.
People with Vata constitution can enjoy up to 4 eggs per week, especially if they have a Vata imbalance and would benefit from the extra fat and protein.
How to make it;
I clove garlic (thinly sliced)
1 green chilli (thinly sliced)
1/2 tsp ground tumeric
2 organic eggs
Splash of coconut milk
Salt and black pepper
Fry the chilli and garlic in ghee or coconut oil for a couple of minutes.
Add turmeric, salt and pepper.
Whisk up the eggs with a splash of coconut milk. Add to the pan and cook until soft.
Serve on a piece of organic sourdough toast with a side serving of ‘Arugula’ (rocket), which will also help assimilate the eggs due to its light, peppery and astringent guna.
