Ingredients
- 5 Eggs
- 2 Tomato, diced
- 4 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp butter
- Salt
- Warm arepas or toast, for serving
Method
- Melt the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium and cook the scallions until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the Tomato with a pinch of salt and cook until it softens and its juices mostly evaporate — a wet pan makes weepy eggs.
- Whisk the Eggs briefly, pour them in, and stir gently until just set but still tender and glossy.
- Pull the pan off the heat a beat early and serve immediately with warm arepas for scooping.
