Let’s get cooking

  1. 01

    Prepare

    Beat eggs and chop tomatoes. Put a separate saucepan of water on for noodles.

  2. 02

    Cook eggs

    Heat half the oil over medium heat. Scramble eggs until fully set, then transfer to a clean plate.

  3. 03

    Build broth

    Add remaining oil and tomatoes. Cook 4–5 minutes, then add measured stock or water. Simmer 5 minutes.

  4. 04

    Cook noodles

    Boil noodles to package directions in the separate pan and drain.

  5. 05

    Combine

    Return eggs to the tomato broth and bring back to a simmer until hot throughout. Season and ladle over noodles, adding scallion.

A little kitchen wisdom

Salted stock may need no extra salt. Taste the finished broth before seasoning.
