Busy mornings or when you need a quick meal! Here’s a microwave soy sauce egg rice recipe that even solo dwellers can whip up in under 10 minutes. You can create a delicious meal with minimal ingredients, offering the comforting ‘familiar taste’ that you’ll never forget once you try it.
Essential Ingredients
- 1 bowl of warm cooked rice
- 2 fresh eggs
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare a small microwave-safe bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of water, and 1/4 tablespoon of sesame oil for a nutty aroma. Stir briefly to combine the sauce.
Step 2
Carefully crack 2 fresh eggs into the prepared sauce. To prevent the yolk from bursting during microwaving, it’s a good idea to gently prick the yolk with a fork or chopstick.
Step 3
Place the bowl with the sauce and eggs into the microwave and cook for 1 minute and 40 seconds. The cooking time may vary slightly depending on your microwave’s wattage.
Step 4
After the initial 1 minute of cooking, check the doneness of the eggs and add the remaining 40 seconds. You can adjust the time based on your preference for a runny or firm yolk. For a softer yolk, reduce the time; for a firmer yolk, increase it.
Step 5
While the egg is cooking, wash and finely chop the green onions to be used as a topping. This will add color and a fresh aroma to your dish.
Step 6
Serve a bowl of warm cooked rice first. Gently place the delicious microwave-cooked soy sauce egg on top of the rice. Gently break the yolk and mix it with the rice for an incredible flavor combination.
Step 7
Finally, sprinkle the chopped green onions and a pinch of toasted sesame seeds for a beautiful finish. This flavorful soy sauce egg rice is the ‘familiar taste’ that’s incredibly satisfying. Mix everything together and enjoy immediately for the best experience!
