Follow step-by-step with voice guidance.
In a bowl, whisk the eggs together with the chopped onion, tomato, green chilies, coriander leaves, red chili powder, turmeric, cumin powder, and salt until well combined.
Heat the oil in a nonstick pan over medium heat.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan and let it cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
Gently stir the eggs with a spatula, scraping from the edges toward the center, and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, until the omelet is fully set but still soft.
Flip the omelet carefully (or cook it as a loose scramble if preferred) and cook for another 30-60 seconds.
Serve hot with paratha, naan, or toast.
Chop Vegetables Small: Finely diced onion, tomato, and chilies cook through fully in the same time as the eggs, so no piece stays raw or crunchy. Don't Rush the First Side: Letting the omelet set undisturbed for the first minute or two helps it hold together better when you flip or fold it. Adjust the Heat to Your Taste: Reduce the green chilies and red chili powder for a milder version, or add an extra chili for more heat.
This usually happens if the pan isn't hot enough or the omelet is flipped too soon. Let the bottom set fully for a minute or two before attempting to flip or fold it.
