Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • 2 tomatoes
  • 3–4 eggs
  • a pinch of salt
  • some cooking oil

Recipe 🍳

  1. Wash the tomatoes under running water, then cut them into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
  2. Crack the eggs into a bowl, beat them until smooth, then add a pinch of salt and mix.
  3. Add cooking oil to a pan, preheat it well, then pour in the beaten egg mixture and gently scramble until just set.
  4. When the eggs are about 90% cooked and still moist, remove them from the pan and set aside in a separate bowl.
  5. In the same heated pan, add the cut tomatoes, sprinkle with a pinch of salt, and stir-fry briefly so they stay crisp.
  6. Once the tomatoes are evenly heated, return the reserved eggs to the pan and quickly toss everything together with the residual heat to finish.
  1. Cut the tomatoes and beat the eggs, seasoning with a pinch of salt.
  2. Heat oil in a pan, cook the eggs until 90% done, then set aside.
  3. Season the tomatoes with salt, stir-fry briefly, then add the reserved eggs and mix lightly to finish.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Do not fully cook the eggs in the pan; remove them when they are about 90% done so they remain soft and moist when mixed with the tomatoes, preventing a dry texture.
  • If you stir-fry the tomatoes too long, they will release too much water and become mushy, so it's best to cook them quickly over high heat to maintain their crispness.
