Keralan Egg Shakshuka
  1. Melt the coconut oil in a heavy pan. Add the onions, fennel seeds, and a big pinch of salt. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes until the onions are caramelized and jammy.

  2. Meanwhile, pound together the chiles, garlic, and ginger in a mortar and pestle - alternatively, grate or finely chop them.

  3. Add the chile-garlic mixture to the pan and cook for 5 minutes until fragrant.

  4. Add the tomatoes and spices and cook for another 20 minutes until the sauce is very thick.

  5. Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer.

  6. Make some wells in the sauce and crack the eggs into the holes.

  7. Put a lid on the pan and allow it to gently bubble for 6 to 7 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still a bit runny.

  8. Serve with crusty bread, a squeeze of lime, and a final sprinkling of garam masala over the top.
