Rustic Somali Spiced Eggs Dumplings

Assemble the ingredients: eggs, bay leaf, garlic, turmeric, tomato, black pepper, lemon juice.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the eggs and cook until spiced.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Somali flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Somali accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
