The Parsis, a tiny ethnic group displaced in ancient times from Persia to India, have a distinctive cuisine. Some years ago, Perviz Parakh, a member of the Parsi community in Melboume, published a booklet containing this recipe.
Finely chop 2 large onions and fry in 3 tablespoons of oil until golden brown. Add to the onions 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon chilli powder, 1/2 teaspoon of ground turmeric and salt to taste. Stir to mix and continue to cook for a few minutes. Chop 1/2 kg of ripe tomatoes and 1 green chilli and finely chop a bunch of fresh coriander. Add them to the onion mixture and cook until the tomatoes are done and there is not too much juice left in the pan. Add 2 tablespoons brown vinegar and 6 teaspoons brown sugar and cook 5 minutes longer.
Transfer the tomato mixture to a lightly greased gratin dish (or 6 individual gratin dishes). Smooth the surface and make 12 hollows with the back of a spoon. Slide an egg into each hollow. Bake the dish in a preheated 180C oven for about 25 minutes or until the egg whites are set.
Makes 6 servings.
