Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 2 medium tomato
- 2 stalks green onion
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Wash the tomatoes and green onions thoroughly. Dice the tomatoes into small chunks and finely chop the green onions, separating the white and green parts.
Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add salt, black pepper, and water, then whisk thoroughly until well combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Pour the whisked eggs into the skillet and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are soft and slightly undercooked. Transfer the eggs to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat another tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the white parts of the green onions and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the diced tomatoes and sprinkle with sugar. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes soften and release their juices.
Return the scrambled eggs to the skillet and toss gently with the tomatoes. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the eggs are fully cooked and nicely coated with the tomato juices.
Sprinkle the green parts of the chopped green onions over the dish and give it a final stir before removing it from the heat.
Serve hot with steamed rice or a slice of crusty bread for a comforting and satisfying meal.
