CHINESE STIR-FRIED TOMATOES AND EGGS



Chinese Stir-Fried Tomatoes and Eggs image

Home-style Chinese food at its simplest and, arguably, tastiest, this dish is the object of nostalgia for many Chinese immigrants (and their children). Well-seasoned eggs scrambled until just-set combine at the last moment with a sweet-tart ginger-tomato sauce. Serve with lots of steamed rice. When tomatoes are out of season, canned tomatoes in juice work best.

Time 20m

Yield Serves 2 or 3, with rice

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 eggs
Kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 pound beefsteak tomatoes in season, or 1 14.5-ounce can of diced tomatoes in juice
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 scallions, sliced
1 teaspoon minced ginger (from about 1/4-inch nub)
Steamed rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs well with 1 teaspoon salt, sesame oil and rice wine or sherry. In a small bowl, stir together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons water until well combined, then stir in the sugar and ketchup.
  • If using fresh tomatoes, core and cut them into 1/2-inch wide wedges.
  • Heat a wide nonstick skillet over high heat with 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil. When the oil shimmers, add most of the scallions, saving some to garnish. Cook, stirring, until very aromatic, about 20 seconds. Add the eggs, and cook, stirring well with a spatula or chopsticks, until just set but still runny, about 45 seconds. Pour the eggs back into the mixing bowl, and wipe out the pan.
  • Reheat the pan over high heat with the remaining tablespoon of oil. When it is hot, add the ginger and cook until aromatic, about 15 seconds. Add the tomatoes and salt to taste; cook, stirring occasionally, until the flesh has softened but still has some shape and the juices have begun to form a sauce, 2-3 minutes. (If using canned tomatoes, add the juice as well and cook about 4 minutes, to reduce it to a saucelike consistency.)
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Give the cornstarch-ketchup mixture a stir in its bowl, then stir it into the pan. Cook, stirring, until the sauce returns to a boil and thickens. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, sugar or more ketchup - you want a savory, tart-sweet sauce. Stir the eggs in the bowl to cut up the curds a bit, then return them to the pan. Cook, stirring, for a few seconds to finish cooking the eggs and to combine. Top with the reserved scallions, and serve with steamed rice.

CHINESE EGG-WHITE OMELET WITH TOMATOES

This light omelet is cooked in a wok.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tablespoons plus 1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 large ripe red tomatoes, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
10 large egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat a wok, without its stand, over high heat for 1 minute. Add 1/2 teaspoon oil, swirling to coat sides of wok. When hot, 1 minute, add tomatoes. Quickly stir until they soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside tomatoes and juices. Rinse wok with hot water; dry.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk egg whites with 1 teaspoon salt until foamy, about 1 minute.
  • Return wok to high heat for 1 minute and add 2 tablespoons oil. When the oil is hot, about 1 minute, scoop up some of it using a large spoon; hold this oil over wok while you pour the whites into wok; immediately pour hot oil onto whites. Cook 1 1/2 minutes. Do not stir; egg whites will puff up. Add tomatoes with their juices in a circular pattern. Continue to cook until eggs are cooked through, 1 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining salt. Slide out of wok onto a serving plate, cut into wedges, and serve.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 14m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
5 large egg whites or 1 1/2 cups egg whites
1/4 cup roughly chopped flat-leaf parsley leaves
3 cups mixed baby greens or mesclun

Steps:

  • Position a rack on the shelf closest to the broiler, and preheat the broiler to high heat.
  • Toss the tomatoes with the vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Warm a medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk the egg whites in a large bowl until foamy and doubled in volume; season with salt and pepper and whisk in the parsley. Add the remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil to the skillet. Pour the whites into the skillet and swirl to cover entire skillet. Cook, without stirring, until the whites are almost set and light brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
  • Transfer the skillet under the broiler and cook until the omelet sets and begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Spoon half of the tomato salad onto half of the omelet and fold the omelet over the filling. Transfer omelet to a serving platter and scatter the remaining tomato salad on top. Serve with the baby greens on the side.

Tips:

  • For a fluffy omelet, make sure to whisk the egg whites until they are stiff peaks.
  • Add some chopped green onions or cilantro to the omelet for extra flavor.
  • Serve the omelet with a side of steamed rice or fried rice.
  • To make the omelet more filling, add some cooked meat or vegetables.
  • If you don't have a non-stick skillet, grease the pan with a little oil before cooking the omelet.
