    Tomato Noodles with Fried Egg

    Chinese tomato fried egg noodles.

    I guess tomato sauce is really great for noodles and pasta, right? This is an ever winning noodles recipe although only common ingredients included. In Chinese language, we call this as “西红柿打卤面” which literally means noodles in tomato gravy. There are mainly types of gravy sauces in Chinese cooking for example five spicy gravy sauces, Zhajiang noodle gravy sauce, spicy gravy sauce etc.

    Tomato Noodles with Fried Egg

    There are two way of making this tomato egg gravy: one is to stir fry eggs firstly and the other one is to make egg drops in boiling tomato sauce. I use the later version in this recipe but you can choose your favorite one. Frying the egg firstly and then cut into pieces provide larger pieces of eggs however the method I am using today can make the sauce mixed better. It is up to your choice which result you wish.

    The key point of this recipe is to choose fresh tomatoes with large amount of fresh juices. If you failed to do that, when adding around 1 tablespoon of ketchup might reserve the situation. Number of egg equals number of tomatoes equals garlic cloves.

    Cook the tomato juice out. If failed, please add ketchup in this step.

      Thank you for posting this recipe. When I lived in China this was my favorite comfort food dish especially when I wasn't feeling well. I've tried making it on my own, but it never tastes quite right. I am looking forward to trying your version.
