Crumble half the stock cube into a heatproof jug or bowl. Add 1 tbsp of the tamari (keep the rest for later), the Worcester sauce and the tomato sauce. Pour in 150ml boiling water and stir to dissolve the stock cube. Set aside.

Rinse the rice under cold water and tip into a small pan. Add 300ml boiling water and a pinch of salt. Cover, bring to the boil then turn the heat right down. Gently cook for 6-8 mins till all the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Take the pan off the heat and let it sit, lid on, for 5 mins to finish cooking the rice.

Meanwhile, crack the eggs into a small bowl, add a pinch of salt and beat them with a fork. Place a wok or deep frying pan on a high heat for 2 mins, then add ½ tbsp oil and the beaten eggs. Swirl them round the pan to coat it. Let the eggs cook for 1-2 mins till just set. Stir to break them up. Scoop out of the pan and set aside on a plate.

Return the eggs to the pan and gently stir to mix them in. Taste the sauce and add more tamari if you think it needs it. Fluff the rice with a fork and divide between 2 warm plates or bowls. Top with the tomato, egg and tofu stir-fry and serve.
