Tomato rice cake
Overview
It’s the Chinese New Year, so I took a break from my busy schedule to make a tomato-flavored Korean fried rice cake. The trial product I received - Heinz ketchup - is really large in quantity. I have made it several times and still haven't used it up. I always want to use it up and make something delicious. Eating tomato sauce regularly has many benefits for the human body. Nowadays, tomatoes have been recognized as a vegetable with strong anti-disease, anti-cancer, and anti-aging effects. However, many people like to eat tomatoes after peeling them because they are afraid of pesticides. As everyone knows, tomatoes are fruits of the Solanaceae family and have the least pesticide residues among various vegetables. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much about pesticide residues. Moreover, because tomato peels are so thin, processing or eating has little effect on the release of lycopene in the pulp. On the contrary, during the intentional peeling process, lycopene is easily lost with the juice. Moreover, tomato skin is mainly composed of dietary fiber, which can also help maintain intestinal health after consumption. Tomatoes are recognized as healthy foods. If tomatoes are made into sauce, they will be more suitable for the elderly. The antioxidant component lycopene in tomatoes has been proven to reduce arterial blockage and reduce the chance of cardiovascular disease. The process of heating and cooking tomatoes into tomato paste can improve the antioxidant effect of lycopene. Moreover, fiber can be softened, allowing the elderly to consume dietary fiber while making it easier for the stomach and intestines to accept it. At the same time, tomatoes made into paste also retain a large amount of vitamins A, C, fiber, B vitamins, various minerals, proteins and natural pectin, which have a preventive effect on breast cancer, lung cancer, endometrial cancer, and colon cancer. In addition, tomato sauce tastes sour and sweet, which can increase appetite, and tomato sauce is easier to digest and absorb than fresh tomatoes. And it is very convenient to eat. If the elderly are inconvenient to cook on the fire, they can put more ketchup on rice and steamed buns for breakfast and dinner. They can also add some ketchup when frying cauliflower, tofu and other dishes. There are so many benefits, so our family loves tomato-flavored dishes, especially Heinz tomato sauce. It is a non-GMO product, has no added preservatives, thickeners, and pigments, and is rich in carotene and vitamin C. There is no reason why we don’t like it! Okay, without further ado, let’s serve the food!
