Tomato and egg- the best match <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In Chinese cuisine, there are lots of dishes that combine tomato and egg together. In addition to this Chinese tomato and scrambled stir fry recipe, another popular dish is Chinese tomato and egg drop soup. For me, I believe they are the best match. Umami components from tomatoes can significantly improve the taste of the scrambled egg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will only need some fundamental ingredients for this classic tomato and scrambled egg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Tomatoes<\/strong>– choose mature tomatoes with more juice if possible. <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Eggs<\/strong>– organic eggs can have a lovely yellow color. Remember to whisk the egg well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Oil<\/strong>– in order to make the scrambled egg tender and fluffy, we will need a larger amount of oil. <\/li>\n\n\n\n

    How to serve with tomato egg stir fry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    This Chinese-style tomato and egg stir fry is a childhood for many of us. It can be served on noodles, rice, or steamed buns as toppings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    My favorite way is to serve it with steamed rice, as a tomato rice bowl. Each bite is super satisfying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If served in a meal, it can be a great side dish. The best match should be dark green leafy stir fry like water spinach stir fry<\/a> and smashed cucumber salad<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Cooking tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Rule 1: well-beaten egg. Use a whisker to beaten the egg with a small pinch of salt and pepper until there is a small layer of fine bubbles.  The air inside the egg liquid can help to make them fluffy and tender. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rule 2: Choose mature tomatoes. Mature tomatoes can provide enough juicy tartness. The tender scrambled egg in tomato juice is definitely a rice killer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I don’t peel the tomatoes for stir-fry dishes, because the skin is super easy to remove after cooking. But if you prefer to remove the skin before cooking, rotate the tomato in hot boiling water, and then the skins can be easily peeled off. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you love scrambled eggs, there are several dishes recommended by us. <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Scrambled egg with shrimp, also known as a Chinese shrimp omelette<\/a> is a tender scrambled egg with light and refreshing shrimp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Another savory scrambled egg dish is with savory beef. Those two are all coming from Cantonese cuisine and are worth trying. <\/p>\n\n\n
