Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    My children love this recipe.

    I'd prefer this with about half the quantity of tomatoes specified, but the flavor is pretty boring so I might not make again.

    Made this with a mixed varieties of tomatoes from the garden. Served it over rice with a fried egg each on top - Chinese comfort food. This is slightly different from my mom's but still good. My mom did not use oyster sauce in hers, and she would cook the tomato with copious amount of chopped garlic and chopped ginger and no scallions. I usually add basil to my mom's version just because I have them in the garden.

    This is an excellent recipe but I wouldn't suggest making it unless you grow your own tomatoes. If you freeze your tomatoes like I do then you can also use them.
