Stir in the cream cheese
FinishWhen the eggs are about three-quarters set and still glossy, take the pan off the heat and stir the cream cheese and diced tomato through. The residual heat finishes the eggs and melts the cheese into ribbons.

Cook's noteTaking the pan off the heat early is not a shortcut — eggs carry on cooking for a good minute afterwards, and that minute is the difference between creamy and rubbery.
