Tomato, Lettuce and Silver Fish Scramble

Posted November 4th, 2010 in Food No Comments »

Since I’ve been eating lots of fried food at the office and home, my face started to show some problems (>0<). When I woke up few days ago there was a red mark on my cheek : I don’t know if it’s related to the pregnancy, my diet, or maybe it’s just an insect bite, but my lips became very dry and I really felt I shouldn’t eat too much fried food anymore.

It’s not my choice eating the fried food so often. Someone else decides the lunch menu everyday at work, and when I’m hungry I just eat whatever is in front of me. And at home in-low cooks some Indonesian food and they are mostly deep-fried.

So, I decided to bring some vegetable-based side dish for lunch from today! Rice is cooked every day at work and it really helps me for saving money 🙂

Today I brought stir-fried vegetables and egg. It’s just a dish I made with whatever I had in the fridge, but it was pretty tasty. I added silver fish to it, and the saltiness of the fish gave a good seasoning.

<Tomato, Lettuce and Silver Fish Scramble>

1 tomato
1 lettuce leaf
2 eggs
1 tbs silver fish

Cut the tomato randomly. Tear off the lettuce leaf. Beat the eggs in a bowl
Heat a frying pan, and lightly spray oil. Stir-fry the silver fish and tomatoes for 1 minutes, and add lettuce. Season with pepper.
Pour the egg into the pan, and stir.

* I cooked through the egg (to be sure), but I would normally cook halfway.

Tomato doesn’t lose its vitamin even if it’s cooked in the heat. And, cold tomatoes make your body cool down, but cooked tomatoes actually help burning the fat on the body. (Lycopene) Eating nutrient, right kinds of calories is very important to keep bub fed and growing! 😀
