I love tomatoes! Tomato is nutritionally categorized as a vegetable though it is botanically a fruit. It has various health benefits, including prevention of cancer and heart disease. It contains Lycopene, one of nature’s most powerful antioxidants. I love to incorporate tomatoes in my cooking. I normally include it in my sinigang, beef stew, and frittata.

I will share a healthy recipe that uses lots of tomatoes. By the way, the tomatoes I used were from Ilocos. They were brought by my mom’s sisters, who have a tomato farm in their province. Since they have brought loads of tomatoes, I decided to cook this recipe.

Here are the ingredients:

1 kilo of tilapia

10 pcs ripe tomatoes

3 pcs shallots

3 cloves garlic

3 eggs, beaten

Fish sauce

Spring onions

Cooking oil for frying

1 cup water

How to do it:

Prepare the fish for frying then fry them until golden brown and crispy. Set aside. Sauté the shallots, garlic, and tomatoes. Add a tablespoon of fish sauce and water and let it simmer until the tomatoes are wilted. Add the eggs while continuously stirring. Add the fried fish then simmer for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste. Turn off the heat and put the spring onions. Cover for another minute.
