Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites and flour until a smooth, lump-free batter forms.
  2. Gently fold the egg yolks into the white mixture, ensuring they are fully incorporated but not over-mixed to maintain a light texture.
  3. Heat the vegetable or olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking.
  4. Slowly pour the egg mixture into the hot oil, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon to prevent scrambling and ensure even cooking.
  5. Continue stirring gently for 3-5 minutes until the eggs thicken and form a creamy, custard-like consistency.
  6. Reduce heat to low and stir in the canned tomato sauce, mixing until fully combined and heated through.
  7. Simmer for 2 minutes to meld the flavors, then remove from heat.
  8. Serve warm over pasta, vegetables, or as a dip.
