Tomato and egg soup recipe.

Ingredients:
2 tomatoes
parsley
shallots
water plus 1 tsp of cornstarch
1 teaspoon tomato sauce
salt to taste 
pepper to taste 
a pinch of chicken essence
sesame seed oil
oil



Clean tomatoes using warm water. Do a superficial cut on the 2 tomatoes then blanch them with boiling water to facilitate easy peeling of the skin. Slice the tomatoes in half and remove the white part. After removing the white part diced the tomatoes. Slice the parsley and shallots and set them aside. Beat 2 eggs in a separate bowl. Prepare corn starch s Heat your wok then place a small amount of cooking oil. When the oil is hot start with the tomato sauce and then the diced tomatoes. When tomatoes have shrunk, add 1 cup of water and season with salt, pepper, and chicken essence. Bring to a boil then thicken the soup by adding the cornstarch slurry in 3 batches. Once the soup has thickened pour the scrambled egg into the soup slowly and in thin shreds. Turn off the heat then adds sesame seed oil. Garnish with shallots parsley.
