Essential Ingredients- 1 bowl of warm cooked rice
- 2 fresh eggs
- 2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 Tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- 2 Tbsp water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare a microwave-safe bowl. Drizzle 1 Tbsp of toasted sesame oil onto the bottom of the bowl. Gently swirl the bowl to coat the entire bottom surface evenly with the sesame oil. This step prevents the egg from sticking and adds a wonderful aroma.
Step 2
In the sesame oil-coated bowl, first add 2 Tbsp of soy sauce. Then, crack 2 fresh eggs into the bowl. Finally, add 2 Tbsp of water. After adding all the ingredients, lightly stir the egg yolks and whites with a chopstick or fork, just enough to break them up slightly; you don’t need to whisk them thoroughly. Now, place this bowl in the microwave and cook for approximately 1 minute and 40 seconds. The cooking time may vary slightly depending on your microwave’s power, so check the egg to ensure it’s cooked to your desired doneness and adjust the time if necessary.
Step 3
Carefully remove the bowl with the perfectly cooked egg from the microwave. Gently place the microwaved soy sauce egg mixture on top of the prepared warm cooked rice. Finish by sprinkling 1 Tbsp of aromatic toasted sesame seeds over the top. Congratulations, you’ve made a simple yet incredibly delicious Soy Sauce Egg Rice! Enjoy it with spicy kimchi or your favorite side dishes.
