I can't claim to be a good cook but if I need to make something quick and easy, this egg and tomato recipe is my go-to dish.
It's a very popular dish from China so you may find dozens of different recipes online. But what I do is:
Goes very well with rice.

I'm gonna make some stir fried pig's liver in oyster sauce later. Not something I eat regularly but it's good to boost my iron intake from time to time, especially when I feel a little dizzy after standing up too quickly.
1. Mix oyster sauce and water in a bowl; not too much water but just enough to account for evaporation later during cooking 2. Caramelise sliced onions over low-med heat 3. Turn heat up higher and add sliced liver (should be somewhat thinly sliced) 4. After slightly browning the liver, add oyster sauce and water mixture and let it simmer for a while Mine rarely turn out so perfectly cooked like this pic but decent enough for my liking.

The metallic taste puts many people off that's why I like the oyster sauce recipe which balances it out. That's also why others add spring onion or even chili to mask the taste even more. But it has important nutrients! I have a unique recipe that I discovered some years ago: Sichuan aglio olio. 1. Soften chopped garlic, chopped chili, and black pepper in olive oil over low heat 2. Increase heat slightly and add in sichuan peppercorn to release its flavour 3. Toss cooked pasta and any other ingredients (mushrooms, meat, whatever) in It's quite an odd combination but sichuan peppercorn really mixes well in aglio olio.

This is my reminder to eat some organs soon. Been having some short spells of dizziness while working lately. Maybe it's the weather but it won't hurt to boost my iron intake.

Mutton Curry
Okay I've been a bit hesitant to share this recipe because I don't cook as much as some of you do, so I'm a little shy. But I've made these quite a few times and it's always turned out well. Essentially, it's a more health-conscious version of the kind of mutton curry/masala we normally see in South Indian eateries. The main difference here is the use of tomato paste instead of coconut milk or yoghurt.
It's one of those dishes that taste even better after being left alone overnight. Enjoy your (relatively) healthy curry! Let me know if you have ways to improve this recipe (without adding yoghurt, coconut milk, or ghee).
