Found the problem other folks are having w/ this recipe. 10min may be too long to cook your tomatoes, slice them a bit thicker than you think you should because they will cook down. If you want them to stay in one piece, they have to be pretty thick slices. Don't cook them until they're mush. Its pretty easy to overcook the tomatoes. The other problem I saw, people felt like there wasn't enough eggs. Last problem was probably just me- the spice looked to be "too much". So I halved it and I'm glad I did. So, if you're gonna try this recipe again... I was satisfied with this : Two slicing tomatoes sliced thick, half can of tomato paste, 4 eggs, 1/4 tsp cumin, 1/4 tsp allspice, salt to taste. Serves two. I'd give the recipe 5-stars if it worked out as posted. 4-stars because it requires a hella ton of fixing to make it the best !

Very different. Tony wasn't sure that he would try them again. Maybe try it with more eggs. And add sour cream.

This recipe is similar to one of my comfort foods, which uses soy sauce and sugar instead of cumin and allspice. I served with pita bread and it was very good. Next time I will try serving with rice. I will also try using at least 6 eggs instead of 4, because the ratio seemed off. I was nervous about the tomato paste at first because it wasn't mixing in, but as the tomatoes cooked down more, they released more juice, which mixed with the tomato paste to create a sauce. I might dilute it a bit next time with some broth. My final product did not turn out like the picture - the tomatoes were completely cooked down and unrecognizable, but I liked it this way. Will definitely make this again because money is tight this month...

Simple and delicious. Easy to make with ingredients on hand- I added 1/2 a can of corn and my little girls loved it!

I thought it was a tasty and filling recipe, as well as a good use of garden tomatoes. However, my boyfriend did not like it much so it is not for everyone.

I have to admit I thought this sounded really strange, but I had a lot of tomatoes so I tried it anyway. Turned out to be quite good. I didn't have enough tomato paste so I used some home-made spaghetti sauce and it was very tasty. Thanks!

I used chopped Roma tomatoes instead of sliced hothouse tomatoes. The flavor was okay.

This was quick, easy and delicious -- the whole family liked it. I cubed the tomatoes instead of slicing them. This would be great over rice or pasta,
