Ingredients
- 4-6 cherry tomatoes cut in half
- 1 small shallot, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 sprigs of green onion, sliced
- ¼ cup loosely packed fresh dill, sliced
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons of vegan egg
- ½ cup ice cold water
- ½ tablespoon soy sauce or soup seasoning sauce or liquid aminos
- 1 tablespoon vegan fish sauce
- Black pepper
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1
In a small mixing bowl, mix the vegan egg product with soy sauce and vegan fish sauce and mix. Add the green onions, dill, and black pepper and mix. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat oil in a medium-sized pan on medium-high heat until hot. Add the shallots and cook until translucent. Add garlic and cook for another 20–30 seconds until brown.
Step 3
Add tomatoes and cook for 2–3 minutes, until tomatoes are cooked.
Step 4
Pour in the omelette mix to form a circle over the sauteed vegetables. Change heat to low-medium. Allow to cook for 3–4 minutes or until firm.
Step 5
Flip over and cook for another 3–4 minutes. Flip to see if brown; if not, let it cook for another 1–2 minutes or until brown (if the other side needs to be cooked longer, flip and cook for a few more minutes).
Step 6
Remove from the pan and serve with sticky or steamed rice.
