I have tried several versions of this dish. From my Mom's recipe to the various recipes found online and the ones in cookshows. There are also various ways to cook this dish. Some states to cook the eggs first whereas some states to cook tomatoes first. And the others, cook both eggs and tomatoes together. In the Taiwan celebrities' cookshow - 型男大主廚, the chef said different methods of cooking this dish have different textures in taste. And it's true!
Anyway, I added ketchup in my recipe as I find the dish a tad too bland for my liking.
