What You Need

  • 2 Zavor & Co gluten-free arepas
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tomatoes, diced

How to Make It

  4. Spoon the eggs and golden tomato over each arepa.
  5. Season with salt and pepper.

About This Recipe

Nimru is a fast Persian breakfast — eggs fried into a turmeric-stained tomato base, the kind of thing that comes together before the tea has steeped. Turmeric is what gives it its golden color.
