Weeknight Kyrgyz Roasted Eggs Salad

Assemble the ingredients: eggs, butter, tomato, black pepper, onion, cumin, paprika.

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

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Kyrgyz 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 Kyrgyz accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
