Ingredients

  • 4 eggs room temperature
  • 2 garlic cloves finely chopped or grated
  • ½ inch ginger finely chopped or grated
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang add more if you really like spice
  • 1 tablespoon crunchy peanut butter no added sugar
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • ½ tablespoon rice wine vinegar
  • 150 ml chicken stock or veggie stock

To serve

  • 2 portions sticky or short grain rice cooked
  • 5 g chives finely sliced
  • 2 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Place 4 room temperature eggs into boiling water and cook for 6 minutes. Then, transfer straight into a bowl of cold water before peeling the eggs when you're ready to serve.
  • Meanwhile, place a small/medium skillet on medium-low heat and drizzle with vegetable oil. Once hot, add in the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for a 30 seconds until aromatic and softened.
  • Next up, add in the gochujang, peanut butter, light soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and a grinding of black pepper. Stir to combine then pour in the stock. Simmer for a couple of minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Once the eggs are cooked and peeled, transfer them to the peanut gochujang sauce pan and coat them in the sauce.
  • Divide your cooked rice between two bowls and top with the jammy eggs and peanut gochujang chili sauce. Sprinkle with chopped chives and sesame seeds. Enjoy my friend!
