Cooking one cup of rice in a pot and add 5 cups of water (more water is better than less). Until rice soft (but still have good amount of water in), add salmon in the can, one mixed egg and salt. The rice will be come sticky soon after the egg is added in. Turn off the heat, add some scallion and soy sauce.
Tomato is very health for you, it's proved to prevent cancer as well. The benefit of egg is well-known and doesn't need me to say much. This is a very health dish. Chinese culture is big on natural healing. A lot of people would go to natural herbal medicine doctor for regular health care. I am a big believer on that too, hate pills but don't mind to drink the bitter natural herbal medicine. The dish Tomato egg is considered as a very health and easy to cook daily dish. It's very simple and there is almost no way to make it taste bad. This dish take you about 20 mins. Kind of short for cooking Chinese food. The things you need (for 2 people): 2 eggs 2 tomatos 1/4 tea spoon of salt 1 stalk scallion 1/4 tea spoon of sugar (white) 1.5 table spoon cooking oil (any kind) 1-2 table spoon ketchup (an add on if you like) Let's cook! Add the scallion in when the tomato become soft. Some tomato is juicier than other. If the dish is watery due to the tomato juicy, it's perfectly fine. Some tomato is softer than other as well, so the tomato can be in a solid form or formless. Add some salt (1/4 of tea spoon is fine or more depends on you), turn off the heat and mix them well.
I do add ketchup sometimes even though the Chinese way is without it, just add salt. But Ketchup give the dish more tomato flavor if the actual tomato does't taste much. Or sometimes, I just add ketchup for heavier flavor. You can add ketchup in the last minute.
This is a really simple dish. I learned it before age 10, so I am sure you can do it~! |
