Cheesy Egg Tomato Noodles
One pot noodle dishes are now one of my favourite things to make! They’re really quick, easy and requires minimal washing up. Here we have sweet tomatoes, with a savoury sauce and a rich egg that’s cooked straight into the noodles. It’s a delicious combination and only takes about 10 minutes!

What ingredients do you need for this dish (includes possible substitutions)?
Sesame oil: can be substituted for your preferred oil if necessary!
Tomatoes: I like adding tomatoes because it gives a nice sweetness, but you could substitute for most vegetables really. Some thinly sliced mushrooms would be delicious too!
Spring onion: adds a freshness to the dish which is very welcome!
Garlic: add as much as you want!
Ramen/egg noodles: most quick cooking noodles will work here!
Light and dark soy sauce: dark soy sauce is mostly used for colour (and a bit of seasoning), so if you don’t have it then just add a little extra light soy sauce!
Oyster sauce: this is optional but I like the added richness it gives!
Egg: can be left out if you want!
Grated cheddar: grated mozzarella would also work well here.
