Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

Fried tomatoes with eggs

Cook the basmati rice according to the package instructions. Heat a pan (or a wok if possible) with 2 tablespoons of oil until very hot. Whisk the eggs and add them. When the pan is really hot, the eggs will be particularly fluffy. Turn the eggs over and break them up a bit, then remove them and set aside. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the pan and add the spring onions. Sauté briefly, then add the tomatoes and garlic. If desired, you can also add a little ginger. Sauté until the tomatoes reach the desired consistency, then add sugar, salt, and ketchup. Finally, add the eggs, season with soy sauce and sesame oil, and let them marinate briefly. Serve on a plate with the rice.
