Method

  1. Whisk the eggs with a splash of cream (if using) and softly scramble them until moist and slightly runny; set aside.

  2. In the same pan, melt butter and sauté the chopped garlic until fragrant, then add the green chillies and sauté briefly.

  3. Pour a white liquid (likely cream or milk) into the pan and stir.

  4. Add a red sauce (likely Schezwan or similar chili sauce) to the pan and stir.

  5. Add the crushed vegetable or chicken stock cube (or Maggi masala), black pepper, smoked paprika, oregano, chilli flakes, and garlic powder if using; mix well.

  6. Stir in the heavy cream and tomato sauce, mixing until the sauce comes together.

  7. Add one teaspoon of cornflour or cornstarch to thicken, stirring to avoid lumps.

  8. Incorporate Schezwan sauce for a spicy, tangy kick and drizzle honey if desired.

  9. Add the greens of choice (spinach, basil, or coriander) and cook together briefly.

  10. Return the scrambled eggs to the pan and gently mix until coated in the creamy, spicy chilli butter garlic sauce.

  11. Serve hot with white rice or your favourite bread.
