  4. Pour 2 tbsp of oil, add 1 sliced onions. Saute until brown. Add ginger garlic paste, saute for a min. Add chilli powder, turmeric, coriander powder, salt and saute for 2 min. Add sliced tomatoes and cook until mushy and oil starts leaving the sides. 

  5. Add coconut milk, curry leaves and simmer. Adjust salt and add vinegar. Add omelette and sprinkle garam masala. Simmer for few min. Rest for 10 min. Serve warm. 

Note

Tomato - 1/2 cup tomato puree can be used instead of sliced tomatoes. 

Coconut milk - Add 1.5 cups of water to 3 cups of grated coconut and extract milk. Or you can use coconut milk powder for this recipe. Add 1.25 cups of hot water 1/2 cup of coconut milk powder. 

Thick omelette - Here for this recipe, I have used a 10 inch skillet to make the thick omelette. Either you can fold the omelette in half or fold both the sides to the centre to make a rectangle omelette.
