Egg and Tomato (With Noodles)

Egg and Tomato is a great dish with just Rice.  The best way however is to get some good Noodles and put this dish on top of them.  I ate this EVERY day my first summer in China.  I was addicted!

Ingredients you will need.

Noodles - (Like the ones pictured)
Chicken Granules
Garlic
Salt
Vine Ripened Tomatoes - (You want the good ones  not the ones spray painted red.  If you have a garden
                     then EXCELLENT!)
Olive Oil
Eggs


Heat a Wok with Oil. (Enough to coat the bottom liberally)

Crack about 4-6 Eggs (Depending on amount of people to feed.) and whisk them really good in a bowl.

Poor the eggs into the piping hot oil.  If they puff up a little that's good.  Don't scramble them.  Try to flip them as a whole or in a couple large pieces.  When thouroughly cooked set aside on a plate.

Cut your tomatoes into 1-1.5 inch chunks.  If you can skin them it will taste a little better if not no worries.  Once they are cut put them in the pan with a little oil not too much.  Fry them for about 2 minutes.  Once they soften and "bleed" into the pan a little you can add a TSP of Chicken Granules dissolved in 1/2 cup water.  Let the Tomatoes simmer in that for about 3-4 minutes.  While they simmer cut the eggs into similar size pieces to the tomatoes.  After the tomatoes have simmered add the eggs.

Now just serve on a bed of rice or a bowl of noodles and enjoy.  It looks wierd but it will grow on you.

Enjoy!
