The bright, tangy flavor of tomatoes pairs surprisingly well with soft scrambled eggs, creating a satisfying meal that helps curb hunger, making it perfect for managing your diet. It’s a hearty and wholesome dish that can be enjoyed anytime.
Main Ingredients- 2 large fresh eggs
- 5-6 ripe cherry tomatoes
- 1/2 Tbsp chopped green onions
- 1/3 Tbsp minced garlic
Seasoning- 1/3 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp cooking oil
- 1/2 pinch salt
- A pinch of black pepper
- 1/3 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp cooking oil
- 1/2 pinch salt
- A pinch of black pepper
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly and then cut them into bite-sized pieces, about 4-5 segments each. If you prefer less moisture, you can also remove the seeds.
Step 2
In a bowl, crack the 2 fresh eggs. Add 1/2 pinch of salt and a pinch of black pepper. Whisk gently with a fork or whisk until slightly frothy. This will help create a softer scramble.
Step 3
Now, heat a non-stick pan over medium-low heat and add 1 Tbsp of cooking oil. Pour in the whisked egg mixture. Swirl the pan slightly so the egg coats the bottom evenly.
Step 4
As the edges of the egg begin to set, use cooking chopsticks or a spatula to gently stir and break up the egg, creating soft curds for your scramble. Avoid stirring too vigorously.
Step 5
Cook until the scrambled eggs are about 70-80% done – they should still look moist and soft. Turn off the heat temporarily and carefully transfer the scrambled eggs to a separate plate. It’s important not to overcook them since they will be stir-fried again with the tomatoes.
Step 6
Wipe the pan clean or use a clean one. Add a little more cooking oil to the pan and add the cut cherry tomatoes. Stir-fry over medium heat until the skins of the tomatoes begin to soften and wrinkle slightly.
Step 7
Once the tomatoes are tender, add the 1/3 Tbsp minced garlic and 1/2 Tbsp chopped green onions and stir-fry for a minute until fragrant. Now, return the reserved scrambled eggs to the pan and gently mix them with the tomatoes. Finally, drizzle 1/3 Tbsp of soy sauce around the edges of the pan and give it a quick final stir. Your delicious tomato and egg stir-fry is complete!
Step 8
Your delightful tomato and egg stir-fry is ready! You can adjust the cooking time for the tomatoes to suit your preference – cook them a bit less for a firmer bite, or longer for a softer, jam-like texture.
Step 9
This stir-fry is delicious on its own, but if you’re looking for a little something extra, try serving it piled high on toasted bread for a delightful brunch experience. Enjoy this hearty and flavorful meal!
