Step 1
Cut 2 whole tomatoes in half. Remove the stem portion from both. Then cut into wedges. Afterwards, cut the wedges in half again - so it turns bite-sized.
Step 2
Cut green onion stalks into thin pieces. Set aside the white portion for frying in oil. And then green portion for garnish.
Step 3
Crack 5 eggs into a bowl. Then season with salt (1/2 teaspoon!), as well as few shakes of black pepper. Whisk thoroughly - so the yolk and white turns into one.
Step 4
Mix Corn Starch Powder (1 teaspoon!) with Water (2 Tablespoons). Set aside for later.
Step 5
Place Vegetable Oil (2 Tablespoon) into a wok. Place on medium-high heat. Then add in the Green Onion (white portion). Once the pieces start to sizzle, add in the tomato chunks.
Step 6
After you add-in the tomatoes, stir-fry it around for 1 minute. Then add in Ketchup (3 Tablespoons) and Sugar (2 teaspoons!). Then, add in 1/4 cup of Water (60 ml).
Step 7
Once it comes back up to a boil, give the starch mixture another quick stir. Then add-in the starch mixture into the tomatoes and give everything a few stirs. Turn off the heat and place the tomato mixture into a separate bowl.
Step 8
Quickly wash the wok and dry it off with a paper towel.
Step 9
Add 2 Tablespoons of cooking oil into the wok. (Make sure there is a small layer of oil - feel free to add another Tablespoon if needed). Place on medium-high heat.
Step 10
Once the oil is hot, add in the beaten eggs. After 10 seconds - the egg will start to set at the edges (reference picture). Immediately, add in the stir-fried tomato mixture.
Step 11
Now gently fold the egg that have set at the edges, inwards - into the tomatoes. Repeat this step - this will make large, fluffy egg curds.
Step 12
At this stage, if you have chicken stock powder on hand - add in 1/2 teaspoon (!) Skip this ingredient, if you don't have.
Step 13
Now, gently break up the large egg pieces into the tomato mixture with your spatula. Stir-fry everything for 15-20 seconds more. Then turn off heat.
Step 14
Plate and garnish with green onion (and cilantro if you like!)
Step 15
Serve with a bowl of fresh hot rice! Bon Appetit!
