Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the eggs: In a large pan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny, about 3-4 minutes.
  2. Prepare the rice: Place the cooked white rice into a bowl. Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice and toss gently to combine evenly.
  3. Assemble the dish: Once the eggs are cooked, place them carefully on top of the seasoned rice in the bowl.
  4. Garnish and season: Sprinkle the sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top of the eggs and rice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Serve immediately: Enjoy this comforting Korean egg rice dish warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • For creamier eggs, cover the pan with a lid while cooking to help the whites set without overcooking the yolks.
  • You can substitute white rice with brown rice for added fiber and nutrition.
  • Adjust soy sauce quantity as per your preferred saltiness level.
  • Serve with kimchi or other Korean side dishes for a fuller meal experience.
