Start by discussing the ingredients: roma tomatoes and eggs.

Use ripe roma tomatoes for the best flavor, avoiding crunchy hard tomatoes.

Choose eggs with bright orange yolks for better taste.

Beat the eggs and season with fish sauce and optionally white pepper.

Use a ratio of 80 grams of tomato per egg as a starting point.

Heat a non-stick skillet and add a little oil.

Add the tomatoes to the hot skillet and turn up the heat.

Season the tomatoes with soy sauce and brown sugar, then mix.

Cook the tomatoes until they are soft and juicy, stirring occasionally.

Once the tomatoes are soft but still holding shape, turn off the heat and set them aside.

Wipe the skillet to prevent burning from the sugar.

Turn the heat back on and add more oil to the skillet.

Add the beaten eggs to the hot skillet and scramble them until they look luscious and juicy but still slightly liquid.

Add the cooked tomatoes back into the skillet with the eggs and toss quickly until the eggs are fully cooked.

Remove from heat and add chopped green onions (which should have been added with the tomatoes).

Plate the dish and clean up any mess with a paper towel.
