These were good and unique but not wow but we had to make due with what we had on hand so I felt it would not be fair to rate it less than 5 stars

    Even with the changes I had to make due to not having ingredients at hand, this was delicious. I used 4 eggs and basically halved everything else using shallots, chilli powder, jar ginger and 1 tsp coriander powder. Unfortunately I didn't have any limes. I used one vine-ripened tomato, and we had the eggs on buttered crusty toast. I'll post a rating after I make it with the proper ingredients. As made today I'd give it a solid 4 plus.

    Oh my goodness but these are such good eggs! Completely different, delicious burst of flavors & bright colors. I scaled this down to just one serving for a quick and incredible breakfast - super flavor, easy to fix,& will be a new standard in my house. I stuffed mine into a pita bread pocket.

    Wonderful eggs, I made them with 6 eggs and my dd and I did not have a problem polishing them off with some tast for a light supper. They certainly looked nice too but tasted even better. Didn't change a thing in the recipe.
