A classic, comforting Chinese home-style dish featuring fluffy scrambled eggs and juicy tomatoes in a savory-sweet sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 3 medium tomatoes
- 2 stalks green onions
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tbsp ketchup
- 2 tbsp water
Steps
- Beat the eggs in a small bowl with a pinch of salt until well combined.
- Cut the tomatoes into bite-sized wedges and thinly slice the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in the eggs and scramble quickly until just set but still soft. Remove eggs from the pan and set aside.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the same pan. Sauté the white parts of the green onions for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the tomato wedges to the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes, pressing down slightly with a spatula to release the juices, until they soften.
- Stir in the sugar, salt, ketchup, and water. Simmer for 1 minute to create a light sauce.
- Return the cooked eggs to the pan. Gently toss everything together for about 30 seconds to incorporate the flavors.
- Turn off the heat, garnish with the green parts of the onions, and serve immediately over steamed rice.
