When ready to eat, simply reheat the masala and scramble fresh eggs into it.
Traditionally, it is served with Goan pav (soft bread rolls). It also pairs wonderfully with buttered toast, chapatis, or as a filling for a wrap.
If fresh coconut is unavailable, you can use frozen grated coconut (thawed before use) or unsweetened desiccated coconut. If using desiccated coconut, soak it in 2-3 tablespoons of warm water for 10-15 minutes to rehydrate it before adding it to the pan.
