Asian - Thai, Indian, Vietnamese, Vegetarian (or easy fix)
Recipe:
2 T. vegetable oil
4 shallots, thinly sliced (or one small onion)
1 t. sugar
5 large ripe tomatoes, cored, seeded, and chopped
5 c. chicken broth
1 T. fish sauce
5 eggs, lightly beaten
1 scallion, finely sliced
1/4 - 1/2 c. chopped Thai basil (the original recipe called for cilantro, but I'd much rather have the basil)
Heat oil in large saucepan/Dutch oven and saute shallots/onions until fragrant. Add sugar and tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, until tomatoes are very soft. Add broth and bring to boil. Stir in fish sauce. Simmer for up to 30 minutes. Stir while pouring eggs in in a thin stream. Finish with scallion and basil or cilantro.
