  2. Heat butter in a large skillet set over medium heat. Add onion; cook for 5 minutes or until golden. Stir in garlic, ginger, garam masala, paprika, turmeric, salt and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for 2 to 3 minutes.

  3. Add tomatoes and the cashew cream; simmer, stirring often for 8 minutes or until thickened.

  4. Add eggs, spooning sauce over top. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or just until warmed through. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve with rice, peas and warm naan (if desired).
