Tomato Stir-fried Spaghetti
Egg and Broccoli

A quick and comforting fusion dish that pairs silky spaghetti with fluffy scrambled eggs, fresh broccoli, and sweet cherry tomatoes. Perfect for a busy day.

Ingredients

• 200 g spaghetti
• 2 eggs
• 100 g broccoli
• 8 cherry tomatoes
• 1 packet seasoning powder
• 1 tbsp cooking oil

Instructions

1. 1Prepare the broccoli

   

   Wash the broccoli thoroughly under running water and cut it into smaller, bite-sized florets.

   Tip: Make sure to clean the broccoli well to remove any trapped dirt.
2. 2Slice the cherry tomatoes

   

   Take the cherry tomatoes and slice each one in half on a cutting board.

   Tip: Using a sharp knife will make slicing the tomatoes easier without crushing them.
3. 3Blanch the broccoli

   

   Place the prepared broccoli florets into a pot of boiling water, blanch them briefly until vibrant, and then remove them immediately.

   Tip: Blanching helps the broccoli maintain a vibrant green color and crisp texture.
4. 4Cook the spaghetti

   

   Add the spaghetti to a pot of boiling water and cook for 10-12 minutes until al dente.

   Tip: Keep an eye on the cooking time to ensure the pasta doesnt get too soft.
5. 5Cool the spaghetti

   

   After boiling, soak the cooked spaghetti in a bowl of cold water for about a minute to give it a chewier texture.

   Tip: This quick cold soak stops the cooking process and improves the pastas bite.
6. 6Scramble the eggs

   

   Crack the eggs into a hot wok with cooking oil and scramble them quickly until they are light and fluffy.

   Tip: Keep the heat at medium to ensure the eggs remain soft before adding other ingredients.
7. 7Combine spaghetti and eggs

   

   Add the blanched spaghetti into the wok where the eggs have been fried, preparing them to be tossed together with the other ingredients.

   Tip: Ensure the heat is at a medium level to prevent the eggs from browning too quickly while combining.
8. 8Add vegetables

   

   Incorporate the previously blanched broccoli and the halved cherry tomatoes into the wok with the spaghetti and eggs.

   Tip: Adding the vegetables at this stage helps them heat through without becoming mushy.
9. 9Season the pasta

   

   Pour the contents of the seasoning packet over the pasta and vegetables in the wok to distribute the flavor evenly.

   Tip: Sprinkle the seasoning gradually while tossing to ensure even coating.
10. 10Stir-fry to finish

    

    Use a spatula to stir-fry all the ingredients together thoroughly until they are well combined and heated through.

    Tip: Keep the ingredients moving constantly to achieve an even stir-fry result.
