   STEPS IN COOKING THE MEAL
   I Started with the yam.

• I cut them in my desired round shapes and pealed them

• I washed them, put them in the pot, added water and lit the gas and began boiling them .

• After 3 minutes of boiling I added my desired quantity of salt and covered it for about 7 -10 minutes to soften the yam, then i sieved the water and set the yam aside in a plate.

  EGG SAUCE PREPARATION
• I chopped the fresh tomatoes and onions
• I roughly blended the red bell pepper, tumeric and ginger together
• I broke the eggs and poured into a plate, added a pinch of salt, then I began to whisk the eggs to my desired texture.
• I washed the curry leaves

The ingredients are all set for cooking now!!
THE COOKING

I placed a clean pot on the gas cooker and allowed the water to dry off the pot.

I added soya oil and allowed it to get hot

I added the chopped onions and stirred a bit, i allowed the onion to release its juice into the oil for about 2 minutes until it turned pale.

I added the roughly blended pepper, ginger and tumeric to release their flavour into the food at this point and continued frying for 1 minute

I added the chopped fresh tomatoes and fried a bit longer till the juice dried up a bit.

At this point, I seasoned the sauce with 3 seasoning cubes and a pinch of salt to taste.

I then poured the whisked eggs into the pot but did not stir at this point, this is to help the egg to coagulate (solidify) then i stirred after achieving my result.

At this point, I added the the curry leaves and the aroma in my kitchen was " Nose blinding"
