Garlic Egg Rice

In a mortar and pestle, crush the garlic cloves, curry leaves, and chili powder into a coarse paste.

Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the crushed chili-garlic paste and sauté until fragrant.

Crack three eggs directly into the pan and quickly scramble them together with the spicy paste.

Add the cooked white rice and salt to the pan. Mix thoroughly until the rice is evenly coated with the egg and spice mixture and heated through.

Serve the rice hot, topped with a fried egg, a sprinkle of extra chili powder, and fresh cilantro.
