Start by preparing the ingredients. Dice the tomatoes into small chunks. Finely mince the garlic and green chilies. Slice the green onions thinly, separating the green and white parts.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs until combined. Set aside.
In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Set this aside as well.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, white parts of the green onions, and green chilies. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the diced tomatoes into the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices.
Pour in the vegetable stock or chicken stock along with the soy sauce, salt, and white pepper. Stir well and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to a simmer and stir in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the soup slightly. Allow it to cook for 1-2 minutes.
Turn the heat to low and slowly drizzle the beaten eggs into the soup in a thin stream while stirring gently with a spoon to create the characteristic egg ribbons.
Drizzle sesame oil over the soup and give it one final stir. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or soy sauce if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with the green parts of the green onions.
Serve hot and enjoy your Egg Drop Tomato with Green Chilies Soup!
