Adjourning to the third recipe for this Lee Kum Kee using the Menu-Oriented sauce packs; Prawn tomato omelet with egg tofu (蕃茄明蝦炒蛋).
This third dish is actually quite a common and popular one among many household. I am sure many of us cook prawn omelet or tomato omelet before. I was thinking, why not perk it up a notch using Lee Kum Kee's Menu-Oriented Tomato Garlic Prawn sauce?
Looks so shiok isn't it? Such a wonderful dish to go with warm steamy rice! Sure reminds me of childhood and my mum's cookinh. ;9 So let's get started shall we?
A look at what we need for this dish:
Egg tofu, Lee Kum Kee Tomato garlic prawn sauce, a large fresh tomato, 5~6 fresh prawns and 2 eggs. Feel free to add more of any ingredient. :)
Personally I love egg tofu...fried haha! That creamy texture is so comforting. And if you have not tried cooking it with an omelet, you should totally try it. :9
Before cooking, cut up all the necessary ingredients. I love the fact that I do not need to chop garlic since it is one of the more time consuming preparation work for me :P
Peel and devein the prawns, cut the egg tofu into smaller discs and slice the tomato into wedges. This takes like 5-7 minutes tops...yes peeling fresh prawns is easier then cooked prawns!
Heat up the cooking pan and add 1 tbsp of oil. Pan fry the egg tofu till slightly golden on both sides. Takes a minute on each side. Careful...it splatters, so pad dry the tofu discs before frying.
Next add in the prawns and tomato wedges at the same time. Stir fry gently not to break the egg tofu.
Once the prawns start to turn pink, add in the Lee Kum Kee Tomato Garlic Prawn sauce. Give it a stir and make sure everything is coated with the sauce.

This dish spells comfort all over. Somehow that tomato tangy, garlicky flavor is just so inviting. The sweet crunchy prawns, creamy egg tofu in that well coated and flavorful omelet is perfect. There is a slight spicy kick to the sauce..which actually brightens up the whole dish. I can have this dish alone and nothing else! So good. :9
