Ingredients
- 3 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 1–2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped tomatoes and cook for 4–5 minutes until they soften and release their juices.
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the cooked tomatoes. Let them cook gently for 2–3 minutes, stirring lightly until the eggs are just set.
- Turn off the heat. Serve immediately with fresh bread or pita.
Tips for Success
- Use ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
- Don’t overcook the eggs — they should stay soft and slightly creamy.
- Add a pinch of cumin or chili flakes if you want extra flavor.
- Serve hot with warm bread or pita to soak up the delicious sauce.
