Method
- 1
Toast the sourdough and spread with the dairy free spread. Keep warm.
- 2
Heat the oil in a non stick pan over a medium-low heat. Add your ready made Thai red curry paste (see the base recipe) and stir for 1 minute until fragrant.
1 min - 3
Whisk the eggs with the coconut milk and a pinch of salt. Pour into the pan.
- 4
Stir gently with a spatula for 2 to 3 minutes, pulling the eggs from the edges, until softly set and creamy. They should still be slightly wet.
2 min 30 s - 5
Pile onto the toast, then top with the spring onion, coriander and chilli.
Tips
- Take the pan off the heat while the eggs are still a little wet. They carry on cooking.
- Use low heat. High heat makes scrambled eggs rubbery.
- Fry the paste before the eggs go in or the flavour is raw.
Storing and freezing
Best eaten straight away, within 10 minutes of cooking. Do not keep or reheat scrambled eggs, and never leave them out for more than 2 hours.
