Title: Fried Eggs in Sweet Soy Sauce
Ingredients:
- 5 large eggs
- 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 1 red chili, sliced diagonally
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Sweet soy sauce, to taste
Instructions:
-
Heat a small amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the finely chopped garlic and shallots, sautéing until fragrant and golden brown.
-
Add the sliced red chili to the skillet and cook for an additional minute, allowing the chili to release its flavor into the oil.
-
Pour in a splash of water to create a sauce base. Gently place the pre-fried eggs into the skillet.
-
Season with salt, black pepper, and sweet soy sauce. Stir the sauce gently around the eggs, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to reduce slightly, making sure the eggs are well coated.
-
Let the eggs simmer in the sauce for a few minutes, allowing the flavors to absorb into the eggs.
-
Once the sauce has thickened and the eggs are well-seasoned, remove from heat. Serve the eggs hot, garnished with additional chili slices if desired. Enjoy!
This savory dish pairs wonderfully with steamed rice, offering a delightful blend of flavors and textures.
