Local eggs: 8 pieces
Salt: to taste
Cooking oil: 3 tablespoons

Method
Step 1: Preparing Eggs
1. Wash eggs with salt water, scrub shells gently, rinse and drain.
2. For scrambled eggs: Beat 4 eggs with pinch of salt until small bubbles form (do not over-beat).
3. For steamed custard: Reserve 4 eggs in separate bowl.
Step 2: Tomato Scrambled Eggs
1. Prep Tomatoes: Wash, remove tops, cut into small pieces (no need to peel).
2. Fry Eggs: Heat 2 tbsp oil to medium heat; pour in eggs, gently push to form soft curds; remove when golden and tender.
3. Stir-fry Tomatoes: In same pan, stir-fry tomatoes over high heat 1 min until juicy; add sugar, salt, soy sauce.
4. Combine: Return eggs to pan, toss 30 seconds to coat with tomato sauce; garnish with spring onion.
Step 3: Silky Steamed Egg Custard
1. Beat Eggs: Beat 4 eggs with pinch of salt until smooth, no granules.
2. Add Water: Slowly add 240ml room-temperature water while stirring; strain through fine sieve.
3. Prep for Steaming: Cover bowl with plastic wrap to prevent water droplets.
4. Steam: Steam over medium-low heat 8-10 minutes; test with toothpick (no liquid = done). Drizzle with soy sauce, oil, and spring onion before serving.
Chef's Tips
1. General: Salt water cleans eggs; avoid over-beating; use medium-low heat for both methods.
2. Scrambled Eggs: Use ripe tomatoes for natural juice; fry eggs gently for tenderness; sugar just balances acidity.
3. Steamed Custard: Strict 1:1.5 egg-water ratio; always strain and cover; adjust time for bowl size.
