Rice-Companion Dish — Gongjin Exploding Eggs

Everyone online says it's delicious, so I had to try it—the ingredients are simple.

Note: I skipped the dark soy sauce in the seasoning below; light soy sauce alone is already dark enough. If you can't handle strong flavors, just reduce the sauce.

Ingredients

eggs 5
white sugar 1 spoon (🥄)
light soy sauce 2 spoons
tomato sauce 1 spoon
black vinegar 1 spoon

Instructions

1

Step 1

Prepare the ingredients.

2

Step 2

Add oil to the pan (if using a non-stick pan, add oil while the pan is cold).

3

Step 3

Add garlic and eggs.

4

Step 4

When the edges are slightly crispy, pour in the sauce.

5

Step 5

Cover with a lid and reduce the sauce over medium-high heat. I prefer it more well-done, so I let it simmer for 2 more minutes. If you like runny yolks, 2 minutes is enough. It depends on the heat of your gas stove.

Step 6

Here's the finished dish — it truly pairs well with rice. Personally, I eat very lightly seasoned food, so I find this overly salty and sweet; the sugar, tomato sauce, and light soy sauce can all be halved.
