Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add the soy sauce, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of ground black pepper. Beat the eggs with a fork or a whisk until the yolks and whites are well combined.
Wash and finely chop the green onions, separating the white parts from the green parts.
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot but not smoking, add the white parts of the green onions and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet. Let them cook for a few seconds without stirring, allowing the bottom to set slightly.
As the eggs begin to set around the edges, use a spatula to gently stir and fold the eggs. Continue gently stirring occasionally, allowing larger folds to form.
When the eggs are about three-quarters cooked, add the sesame oil and most of the green parts of the green onions (reserving a few for garnish) and continue to cook until the eggs are cooked through and fluffy, about 1 to 2 minutes.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir-fried eggs to a serving plate. Garnish with the remaining green onion greens.
Serve immediately as a stand-alone dish or as a component of a larger meal.
