I found this recipe in an Indian Cook Book I have at the lake and Bonnie and I had it for breakfast a number of times in the past two weeks.  I went to type the recipe into the blog and didn't find time, but I am doing it tonight so that I can make this in Calgary.

Here is another recipe that is close:  Curried Scrambled Eggs  It add turmeric to the mix which should be lovely as well.

I have a tip for the ginger which you may already know.  Buy a large piece of the ginger, then shred it and put it in your freezer in a small plastic container.  Just take out as much as you need.  Or even a better tip, as Rebecca told me.  Just buy the bottle of ginger and garlic paste and have it in your fridge to use when you need it.
