Do you put tinned tomato in omelette?

[TiggerthePooh]

I'm watching an episode of "eat well for less" and they're putting tinned tomatoes in their omelette like it's perfectly normal?

Is that a thing? I really can't see how that would taste nice but ready to hear otherwise!

No, that sounds weird

Nope.

In NO universe is that normal.

Did someone decide to make huevos rancheros and then have a psychotic break?

That sounds revolting

Sounds vile 😫

Ah thank you! Revolting is the word that came to my mind too!

Sounds grim. Which episode was it?

No, ugh that sounds awful!! I’d put a chopped up fresh tomato in but no way not tinned!

It sounds very sloppy and I imagine it would look like partly congealed vomit when served.

Yuck no! That would be...sloppy. I sometimes chop up an actual tomato to put in though.

Wouldn't it just turn into a soggy mess? 🤢

I’ve had tinned tomatoes in scrambled egg, lots of salt pepper and some cheese grated in … quite delicious imho

I am guessing they were drained and they didn't just chuck the juice in too. Grim.

well shakshouka is very good

I was going to say shakshuka is lovely so I wouldn't mind the flavour, I think it's the texture that I can't make seem a good idea in my head.

That ^^
Maybe on the side... but not in it

I agree it's definitely 🤮

I don’t know... if you could somehow craft a sort of egg calzone with pulped tomatoes inside the omelette exterior, I reckon it could be quite nice. But that sounds tricky, so I imagine this is runny egg with runny tomato? Which does sound disgusting.

No! There is absolutely no way I could ever eat that

I loathe tinned tomatoes though

Absolutely not. Yuk.

How revolting 🤢

Only on the side.... not mixed in ever it would totally take over the flavour of eggs.

Eggs with tomato is a really popular Chinese dish

I was thinking about heuvoruous rancheros too. I think the trick is draining then super heating the tomatoes before adding eggs.

There's a Greek meze dish which is scrambled eggs and tomato (think it can be garlicky and you can also add feta) it's absolutely delicious
