Ingredients
- Plum Tomatoes — 1 lb
- Vegetable Oil — 1 tbsp
- Eggs — 5 pcs
- Sesame Seed Oil — 1 tsp
- Chicken Bouillon Powder — 2 tsp
- Sugar — 2 tsp
- Pepper — 0.5 tsp
- Salt — 0.25 tsp
- Spring Onions — 1 pcs
- Jasmine Rice — 2 cup
Steps
- You can use chicken broth in place of the chicken bouillon powder. Add 1/4 cup of broth followed by 2 teaspoons of cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoPrepare the tomatoes:
- Slice the tomatoes in half. Remove the tough stem from each half that connects to the vine. Cut each half into equal thirds (you’ll get 6 slices from each tomato).
- Make the soft scrambled eggs:
- In a cold, 8 to 10-inch nonstick skillet, add the vegetable oil and beaten eggs. Turn the heat to medium. Once a thin layer of eggs is just beginning to cook on the bottom, push the eggs in one direction to create layers of scrambled eggs.
- Cook, gently stirring the whole time, until the scramble eggs are mostly set but still slightly wet and shiny, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove the eggs to a plate and, if needed, wipe out the pan.
- Stir-fry the tomatoes and seasonings:
- Add the sesame oil to the pan followed by the tomatoes and stir-fry over medium heat until the tomatoes are softened but not mushy, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken bouillon powder, sugar, and white pepper. Toss until combined and the sugar and bouillon have dissolved, about 1 minute.
- Add eggs, stir-fry, and garnish:
- Add the eggs back to the pan with the tomatoes. Stir-fry for about 2 minutes to heat through and combine. Taste, adding salt only if needed. Sprinkle with the green onions and serve with steamed rice.on of water, plus salt to taste.
