 Korean Marinated Eggs

 

Hello, everyone! Hope you are doing well! The dish I want to introduce today is one of the popular side dishes in Korea. It's Marinated Eggs. If you make enough, you can put them in the refrigerator for about a week and keep eating them. If you mix rice with marinated eggs, it's great for a meal. Then, let's make it together! 

 

Ingredients: 6 eggs, 1/2 onion, 1/2 red bell pepper, 2 green onions, 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Seasoning: 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup water, 4 tablespoons sugar 

How to make it

Step 1: Boiling eggs 

Pour plenty of water into the pot. When the water boils, add half a tablespoon of salt. Add half a tablespoon of vinegar.

Then, add eggs one by one.

When it starts to boil, stir the eggs for about a minute gently. Then the egg yolks go in the middle. Boil them for about 8 minutes. The key point of this dish is not to boil the egg completely, but to cook the egg yolk half-cooked. If you want more cooked eggs, boil for another 1 minute or so.

Put the boiled eggs in cold water for about 5 minutes. If you put it in cold water, you can peel egg shells easily. Peel the boiled eggs. 

If you hit the boiled eggs against each other, it's easy to peel.

Step 2: Preparing Ingredients 

Slice the onion thinly. And chop the sliced onion finely.

Slice the red bell pepper thinly. Finely chop it again. Chop the scallions into small pieces. 

Step 3: Making sauce 

Pour 1/2 cup of soy sauce into the container. Pour 1/2 cup of water and 4 tablespoons of sugar. 

Stir well to dissolve the sugar. 

Add all the ingredients which you just cut. Sliced onions. Sliced red bell pepper. Sliced scallions. 

6 boiled eggs. Add 1 tablespoon of sesame seeds.

You can put the lid on and put it in the refrigerator for half a day before you eat it. You can keep it in the refrigerator within a week.

Step 4: How you eat it

Place an egg on top of the rice. And put the sauce on top. Add a bit of sesame oil. It's very good to mix it with rice.

Today's dish is a great side dish if you boil eggs and put them in soy sauce broth. When you don't have an appetite, it would be great to mix the marinated egg rice with sesame oil. Hope you like today’s recipe. Then I'll be back with a simple and delicious dish next time. Thank you! Bye bye!

Notes

• If you boil eggs with salt, you can peel the egg shells easily.
• The reason for adding vinegar is that if an egg is broken, vinegar has the ingredient that solidifies the protein, preventing the white from coming out.
• Take the egg out of the refrigerator before boiling and place it for about 30 minutes at room temperature. Then, it doesn't break when boiling.
• If you like spicy food, it's good to add chili peppers instead of bell pepper.
