Ingredients

4 - 6 medium sized tomatoes*, cut into large chunks

2 tbsp neutral oil

1 tsp chicken bouillon powder

2 tsp ketchup

2 tsp sugar

1 - 2 cups water

2 servings of uncooked noodles**

2 - 3 green onions, sliced with the white part separated

Directions

Step 1

In a medium sized bowl, whisk the eggs with a small pinch of salt and a splash of water (about 2 tsp).

3 eggs

2 tbsp neutral oil

Step 2

Heat oil in a small non-stick pan. Add the eggs and scramble to your desired doneness. Move to a plate and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium sized pot, add the tomatoes, bouillon powder, ketchup, sugar, garlic, and the white parts of the green onion. Let cook on medium heat until the tomatoes have broken down a bit and released some of their liquid.

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tsp chicken bouillon powder

2 tsp ketchup

2 tsp sugar

Step 4

Add enough water to mostly cover the tomatoes. You can adjust the amount of water to match your preference of brothiness. Bring soup to a boil. Taste the soup and add sugar or bouillon powder to taste.

1 - 2 cups water

Step 5

Once boiling, turn the heat to medium. Add the noodles directly to the soup and cook according to directions (omit the spice packet if you use instant ramen).

Distribute noodles and broth between two bowls for serving. Slice or cut the egg with scissors into strips and arrange over both bowls.

Step 7

Serve with a generous sprinkling of green onion and your leafy greens.

Notes

*Stick to firm tomatoes like the ones you can find on the vine or roma. Heirloom are too watery for this application. **Pretty much any noodle will do here, just make sure you know how to cook whatever type of noodle you're using — for example, dried rice noodles will take longer to cook. My favorite noodles to use here are thicker wheat noodles or instant ramen, but you can also use udon, glass noodles, etc.
