Tomato and Egg Custard

Tomato and Egg Custard

This delicate and flavorful **Steamed Egg Custard with Tomato Topping** is a comforting dish that combines silky smooth eggs with a tangy, sweet tomato sauce. Perfectly steamed to a tender, custard-like texture, the eggs are mixed with water for an ultra-light consistency, then covered and steamed with small holes for even cooking. The result is a melt-in-your-mouth base that pairs beautifully with a vibrant tomato topping. Fresh tomatoes are sautéed in olive oil until juicy, then seasoned with a touch of salt and sugar for a balanced sweet-savory finish. Simple yet elegant, this dish highlights the natural richness of eggs and the bright acidity of tomatoes, making it a wholesome and satisfying meal. Ideal for a quick breakfast, light lunch, or nutritious side, this recipe is both easy to prepare and irresistibly delicious.
