Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Filipino Scrambled Eggs
  1. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them vigorously using a fork or whisk until well combined and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over low heat and add 1-2 tablespoons of butter. Allow to melt gently, about 3-4 minutes until translucent.
  3. Fold in the chopped Roma tomatoes with the softened onions in the skillet. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, and gently mash some tomatoes.
  4. Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Let them set undisturbed for 20-30 seconds.

  6. Remove from heat and season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
