Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, a pinch of salt, and a dash of white pepper until fully combined and slightly frothy. Set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and stir gently until just slightly runny, about 1-2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of water, 2 tablespoons of ketchup, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Mix well.
  4. In the same wok, sauté 2 cloves of minced garlic and 2 chopped green onions for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add 3 diced Roma tomatoes to the wok and cook until they begin to soften, about 2-3 minutes.
  6. Pour in the sauce mixture and let it bubble gently. Then whisk 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and add to the wok, stirring until the sauce thickens.
  7. Return the soft scrambled eggs to the wok, fold them into the mixture, drizzle in 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, and mix until heated through. Serve hot over 2 cups of steamed rice.
