Tomato And Egg Broth 蕃茄蛋湯



If you are a fan of tomato fried egg then you are going to enjoy this just as much. Thanks to the abundance of the tastiest tomatoes and endless supplies of the freshest eggs back home we were able to enjoy this delicious dish all year round. These days I can always count on the wonderful hot house tomatoes even in the middle of winter.

This delicious dish is hearty enough to be served on a cold winter night but delicate enough as a light lunch on a warmish day such as today. If you have a mint bush outside that is making a come back like mine, you might want to give my mint omelet broth a try too.

P.S you may slowly add in the beaten eggs last for an equally delicious tomato and egg drop soup.
