Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked rice (or 1.5 cups day-old rice, warmed)
  • 3 tbsp gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cups baby spinach
  • 1 medium carrot, cut into thin matchsticks
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tbsp scallion, sliced (white and light green parts)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 60 seconds.

  2. 2

    Add carrot and spinach, stirring occasionally, until spinach wilts and carrot softens, 2–3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Push vegetables to the edge of the skillet. Crack both eggs into the center and cook without stirring until whites set but yolks jiggle, 3–4 minutes.

  4. 4

    In a small bowl, whisk together gochujang, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth and glossy.

  5. 5

    Divide rice between two bowls. Top each with the eggs, sautéed vegetables, and a drizzle of gochujang sauce.

  6. 6

    Garnish with sliced scallion and serve immediately.

Tools you’ll need

  • large skillet (10-12 inches)
