Packed with nutrition despite its simple preparation, this tomato and egg dish is a delightful treat.
Ingredients- 10 cherry tomatoes
- 2 eggs
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Wash the cherry tomatoes thoroughly under running water, remove their stems, and then cut each one in half. This preparation helps to release their delicious juices as they cook, enhancing their flavor and texture.
Step 2
In a bowl, crack two eggs. Add a pinch of salt to season them. Using chopsticks or a fork, beat the eggs vigorously until the yolks and whites are fully combined and the mixture is smooth and frothy. This ensures a more tender and evenly cooked egg.
Step 3
Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Once the pan is sufficiently hot, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Carefully place the halved cherry tomatoes into the hot oil and begin to stir-fry them. Cook until the tomatoes start to soften slightly and release their sweet aroma.
Step 4
Once the cherry tomatoes are nicely sautéed, pour the beaten egg mixture into the pan, starting from the edges. Using chopsticks, gently stir the eggs as they cook, creating soft curds. Continue stirring until the eggs are lightly golden brown and well combined with the tomatoes. Your delicious cherry tomato and egg scramble is ready!

While incredibly easy to make, the taste of this dish is surprisingly delightful, offering a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. It’s wonderful served over a bowl of steamed rice as a satisfying side dish, or enjoyed with toast for a light and enjoyable brunch.
