How to Make Egg In A Tomato
- Select a medium-size tomato (approximately 6-8 oz). Cut off a thick slice (about ½ inch) from the stem end.
- Gently scoop out the seeds and pulp from the tomato, creating a well.
- Place the hollowed-out tomato in a small, microwave-safe bowl.
- Add 1 teaspoon of butter inside the tomato.
- Carefully crack one large egg into the tomato well.
- Pierce the egg yolk with a toothpick or fork to prevent it from exploding during cooking.
- Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese (cheddar, parmesan, or your favorite) over the egg.
- Place the reserved tomato slice back on top.
- Microwave on medium-high power for 1 minute 45 seconds to 2 minutes, or until the egg white is set and the yolk is cooked to your liking. Cooking time may vary depending on your microwave.
- Let stand for 1 minute before carefully removing and enjoying! Serve immediately.
