Instructions
- Step 1: Crack 6 large eggs into a large bowl. Add 1/3 cup fresh grated coconut, 1 small finely chopped onion, 1 finely chopped green chili, 1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander leaves, 1/4 tsp turmeric powder, and 1 tsp salt. Beat gently until combined but still slightly chunky.
- Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour the egg mixture evenly into the pan.
- Step 3: Cook gently for 6-7 minutes without stirring until the edges begin to set and the bottom is golden.
- Step 4: Carefully flip the frittata using a large spatula or invert onto a plate and slide back into the pan to cook the other side for 4-5 minutes until fully set and lightly browned.
- Step 5: Remove from heat and let rest for 2 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with crusty bread or as a protein-rich breakfast.
