Ingredients
– 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
– 6 large eggs
– 1 onion, diced

2. Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for 1 minute, until fragrant.
3. Add the trimmed and cut green beans to the skillet. Season with the turmeric, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Stir to coat the beans in the spices.
