Ma-Too Eggs

This is not a dish for everybody. In fact, some of you might be absolutely appalled and disgusted at what I’m about to tell you.
Ma-too eggs have been around in my family for a long time, ever since our first son decided when he was little that he liked eggs over easy but didn’t know how to describe them.
So he made up his own word – “ma-too.” Ever since then, we’ve called eggs with runny yolks “ma-too.”
Ma-too eggs look pretty horrible when they’re ready to be eaten. In the picture above, I’m showing you what it looks like before everything is mashed together, in order to prevent your disgust from trying it out.
Ingredients
  • EGGS, two
  • BUTTER, a dab in the pan
  • KETCHUP, 3 tablespoons
  • SOY SAUCE, 2 tablespoons
  • HOT SAUCE, to taste
  • RICE, 1-2 cups, cooked
Directions
  1. Combine the ketchup and soy sauce in a small bowl, along with as much hot sauce as you want.
  2. Cook the eggs in a non-stick pan with butter, over-easy.
  3. Slide the eggs onto a bed of steamed rice (sticky rice is best).
  4. Spoon the sauce over the eggs.
  5. Mash it all together – rice, eggs and sauce.

  1. I like my eggs cooked that way too but I mash them with buttered grits.
