Tomato and Egg Hand-Pulled Noodles

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   Prepare about 500 grams of flour (for two people) and crack in an egg. (Because it is household low-gluten flour, adding an egg makes it more elastic. If you don't like it too hard, you can just add the egg white or not. If you are not sure, just do it a couple more times.)

   

2. 02

   Step 2

   Add water, little by little, until it forms clumps (the amount of water added is about the volume of one egg).

   

3. 03

   Step 3

   Pour the flour that has been mixed into a dough onto a work surface, sprinkle flour underneath, and knead into a dough.

   

4. 04

   Step 4

   Roll it out into a thin and even round shape (it's easier, faster, and less strenuous to roll it out with a rolling pin, as the thickness of the dough affects the cooking time and texture, so try to roll it out until it's almost as thin as possible).

   

5. 05

   Step 5

   Sprinkle flour on both sides of the dough, roll it up with a rolling pin, and then remove the rolling pin.

   

6. 06

   Step 6

   Cut into noodles about one finger wide.

   

7. 07

   Step 7

   Sprinkle with flour and spread out to set aside.

   

8. 08

   Step 8

   Peel and chop the washed tomatoes (you can easily peel them by rolling them with chopsticks; if they are half-ripe, just use a peeler).

   

9. 09

   Step 9

   Sliced ​​scallions

   

10. 10

    Step 10

    Heat oil in a wok

    

11. 11

    Step 11

    Heat oil and add chopped green onions

    

12. 12

    Step 12

    After sautéing the chopped scallions until fragrant, add the tomatoes and stir-fry (adding a spoonful of salt can prevent the oil from splattering too much).

    

13. 13

    Step 13

    Pour in an appropriate amount of water

    

14. 14

    Step 14

    After the water boils, add the rolled-out noodles and stir.

    

15. 15

    Step 15

    Chop the scallions.

    

16. 16

    Step 16

    Add salt, chicken bouillon, and pepper to a pot and stir well. Crack an egg into the pot and cook for about ten minutes (because it's handmade noodles, it won't clump together even if you cook it longer; it's best to pick out a noodle and taste it before taking it out of the pot).

    Step 17

    After the noodles are cooked, add chopped green onions, stir, and then turn off the heat.
