We don’t simply label recipes as our latest obsessions unless we truly can’t get enough of a meal. We made this meal 3 times this week, so I think it’s safe to say that we aren’t playing around.

Boil the eggs to your liking - we boiled ours for 8 minutes. Don’t worry if the eggs don’t peel perfectly, because we are going to mash them up later and you won’t be able to tell. Throw together the sauce in a frying pan and toss the eggs in it.

My favourite part about this recipe is that you can cook a double batch for dinner, so there is enough for lunch the next day, and it barely takes any additional time.

Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 tbsp gochujang
  • 1 tbsp gochugaru
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 spring onion
  • Sesame seeds (to serve)
  • Furikake (to serve)
  • Rice (to serve)

Method

  1. Boil eggs and peel the shell. You can do either soft or hard boiled eggs
  2. Finely slice the spring onion on a bias
  3. In a bowl, combine the gochujang, soy sauce, water and vinegar until it is a runny paste
  4. Fry the spring onion until it is a vibrant green
  5. To the frying pan, add the sauce mixture and gochugaru and cook for 1 minute on a medium-low heat
  6. Add the eggs and toss well to coat
  7. Plate this up on a bed of rice with sesame seeds and furikake.
