Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Beat eggs with a pinch of salt until pale and foamy, about 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Chop tomatoes into roughly 1-inch chunks, discarding excess juice if watery.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 2 tbsp neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering.

  4. Step 4

    Pour in eggs, then stir gently with a spatula every 10 seconds until just set but still creamy, ~2 minutes total. Remove and set aside.

  5. Step 5

    Add ginger to the same skillet, stir for 20 seconds until fragrant, then add tomatoes.

  6. Step 6

    Cook tomatoes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until soft and juicy, ~3 minutes, then return eggs to the pan with soy sauce and sesame oil.

  7. Step 7

    Fold gently until eggs and tomatoes are just combined, about 30 seconds, then serve over rice.
