Ingredients · 1 serving

  • 3Egg
  • 250 gBeefsteak tomato, diced and drained
  • 15 gClarified butter
  • 5 gChive, chopped (to serve)
  • 1 pinchSalt

Equipment

stovetop, knife, cutting board, mixing bowl, fork, sieve, frying pan, spatula, serving plate

Instructions

  1. Mise En Place

    Gather eggs, tomato, butter, chives, and salt; set out a knife, board, bowl, fork, sieve, frying pan, and spatula. · 2 min

    What to look for: All ingredients and tools are ready on the work surface.

  2. Drain Tomato

    Dice the tomato into chunky pieces, then drain off loose juice and seeds in a sieve so the eggs stay creamy, not watery. · 2 min

    What to look for: Tomato pieces look fleshy, with most loose juice left behind.

  3. Soften Tomato

    Melt clarified butter in the frying pan over medium heat, add tomato pieces, and cook 1-2 minutes until just softened. · 2 min

    What to look for: Tomato pieces soften slightly but still hold their shape.

  4. Whisk Eggs

    Whisk eggs with salt in the bowl until the yolks and whites are just blended, then pour them evenly over the warm tomatoes. · 1 min

    What to look for: Eggs are streak-free but not foamy.

  5. Scramble Gently

    Stir gently over medium-low heat, sweeping the pan slowly, until soft glossy curds form and the eggs remain creamy. · 3 min

    What to look for: Curds are soft, glossy, and barely set around the tomato.

  6. Serve With Chives

    Scatter chopped chives over the jajecznica and serve immediately while the curds are soft and the tomato is still bright. · 1 min

    What to look for: Chives sit fresh and green on top of the creamy eggs.

Ingredient substitutions

Egg

  • Duck egg: Use about 2 duck eggs for a similarly rich scramble.

Beefsteak tomato

  • Raspberry tomato: Choose a ripe, meaty tomato and remove excess juice.

Clarified butter

  • Sunflower oil: Less buttery, but it keeps the pan slick and is part of the allowed pantry.

Chive

  • Spring onion: Use only the green tops for a similar fresh onion note.

Salt

  • Sea salt: Use the same small pinch and adjust only after cooking.
