Instructions

1.
Whisk eggs in a bowl with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Dice the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

Add minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Chef's Tips

For a spicier dish, add a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the garlic.

Serve with toast, rice, or congee for a more substantial breakfast.

You can add other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms to the stir-fry for extra flavor and nutrition.

Don't overcook the tomatoes; they should still have some texture.

If you don't like scrambled eggs, you can fry the eggs separately and place them on top of the tomato stir-fry.
