I've tried several egg recipes during the Culinary Quest. These were one of my favorites. The hint of ginger added to the dish without being a top note. I liked the mushrooms too. I'll be making these again!

These eggs may not be pretty but they sure taste wonderful. Lively flavour! Lovely for my Sunday Brunch. I cut the recipe back to 2 eggs, one serving. I used a large Jalapeño pepper and a tomato from the garden. I'll be enjoying this recipe again

We really enjoyed this for breakfast. I served it with some pita flatbread that I needed to use, and it was a great meal. Although I thought the ginger went in this dish, I went light on it (only because my family isn't a fan of it, it seems to be overwhelming in most dishes). Next time, I'll probably keep it to a minimum because it seemed to work well at half the amount. I was able to use fresh green chilies from my own garden, so it was nice to have them super fresh. I'd definitely make this again. It's very flavorful with a nice kick but not overly spicy, so it was enjoyable for all of us, even those with mild preferences. Thanks, Mikekey.

We liked these eggs but didn't love them. The addition of the fresh ginger was a little "odd" and added a flavor that wasn't really popular with my family. That being said, it definitely wasn't the fault of the recipe, as ginger seems to be a common addition to eggs in Himalayan recipes. We really enjoyed all of the other spices and vegetables. The recipe goes together very quickly and easily, and all of the cooking times were spot on. I served the eggs topped with sour cream. **Made for 2017 Culinary Quest - Himalayas for Smok'in Chefs**
