Cook the meat in a medium skillet over medium heat.

Add the onion and green pepper and cook until the vegetables are wilted and slightly toasted.

Add spices such as red and black pepper, turmeric and any spices you prefer, and stir for a few seconds.

Put the scrambled eggs and try to get the eggs evenly on all sides.

Cover the skillet and cook over a low heat.

Check the bottom of the eggs. If it is roasted to the degree you want, flip it onto a second plate and return to the pan until the other side is toasted, or keep the plate covered until it cooks from the top but will not be toasted.
