N.B. These are usually made for shabbat lunch. I make a yemenite dish
called jachnun that involves nesting the eggs in a short dough called
ajin (this is the same dough used for Melawach). The eggs take on the
coffee color not form the liquid but from the cooking process. At least
in the case of jachnun there are no onions for them to absorb color from.
Shabbat shalom,
Danny
