How do you like your eggs?

Everyone has a particular way in which they prefer their eggs. Those of us who like eggs in more than one way, make that determination based on what we are in the mood for – baked, boiled, fried, scrambled, over easy, sunny side up, poached, etc. And then there are those egg fry ups that are full wholesome main dishes, like Mexican scrambled eggs, Chinese tomato and eggs stir fry, and Shakshuka (a North African dish of eggs poached in a sauce of tomatoes, peppers, onions and garlic). In Guyana, we are known to make a particular fry up of eggs with onions, tomatoes, and fresh herbs. It’s a meal in itself that goes well with hot white rice, roti, bakes or bread. The Fiery Eggs I am sharing today draws inspiration from all the above-mentioned egg dishes.
