Eggs in Tomato Gravy

Eggs in tomato gravy is perhaps one of the most common dishes that is widely cooked and consumed by Chinese families all over the world. It is simple to cook and yet very delicious. I have been eating this for as long as I remember and now my son is fond of it as well! The gravy is sweet yet tangy and most importantly, you do not need much ingredients to make it.

These are the ingredients that you are going to need:


  • 6 Eggs
  • 2 medium tomatoes
  • Oil
  • Sugar
  • Salt
  • Chicken Powder
  • Cornflour
  • Water



1) First, you need to whisk all the eggs in a bowl and then fry them in a wok. You may need to fry them in two lots. Once the eggs are fried you can cut them into bite size pieces or you can break them with your spatula. 

2) Now pour some oil in the wok and fry the tomatoes. Add in the sugar next because it will help you melt the tomatoes faster. Now once the tomatoes are fully cooked, pour some water and bring it to a boil. Put in the salt and chicken powder and then add the fried eggs in.

3) Let it cook for 3-5 minutes till the juices from the tomatoes have been infused with the eggs in the gravy. Now mix some cornflour with water and pour the mixture into your wok. When the gravy thickens to the consistency that you like, stop adding the cornflour mixture and let it boil for 10 seconds.

4) Pour the food into a bowl and enjoy with hot rice.

Bon Appetit!

So I heard about the buffet here from my sister, who happens to be a foodie like me and since we were travelling together, we decided to go for the buffet here. Boy, you won't be disappointed! Take a look at the pictures here: I feel my best experience dining here was eating the fresh seafood. They had boiled and chilled Prawns and Crabs with Thai dipping sauces. I saw some people taking the seafood to the live counter to heat the same, but we decided eat the delicacies chilled. Trust me, I wasn't disappointed. I never knew simple boiled prawns and crabs could taste so good. Maybe it was the dipping sauces!  Oh, they also had snails and oysters (which I didn't try as I wasn't fond of it). Of course, the buffet was just about these two items because they had the local Thai food like Pad Thai, fish balls noodle soup, e...
