Step 2

Add in your seasonings and mix. Cover, and cook until the onions are translucent and everything is fully cooked to your liking (about 10 minutes). Taste, and adjust for seasoning. Remember that this is all the seasoning for the eggs as well, so it should taste a little too strong of everything. Remove from heat and crack on your eggs
