In narnumru, eggs are fried atop a bright bed of juicy pomegranate arils, yielding a dazzling contrast of flavors and colors. And this is achieved by using only 3 ingredients—onions, pomegranate arils, and eggs. Yet the result is a full-flavor dish. Unique. Exotic. Delicious. Nutritious. Keep in mind: The layer of pomegranate arils in the frying pan should not be thin but should be rather dense and thick. Also, for best results, pick sweet-and-sour pomegranates with juicy arils and small pits. You can also make a single-serving narnumru with one egg, adjusting the other ingredients accordingly, in a small 7-inch (18-cm) frying pan. As a general rule, you need 1 cup of pomegranate arils per 1 egg, plus ¼ cup chopped onions.

Instructions

Step 1

Heat the butter in a medium nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until light golden, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

Add the pomegranate arils, cover, and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the arils have released some of their juices, about 7 minutes.

Step 3

Break the eggs one by one into the pan, spacing them evenly and making sure the yolks stay intact. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks are set on the top and are somewhat soft in the middle, about 5 minutes (you can also cover and cook). Remove from the heat and serve immediately with bread.* If using unsalted butter, to prevent it from burning, add a teaspoon of olive oil along with the butter to the pan.
