Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 fresh eggs
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes or 1 fresh chili pepper, finely sliced (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil (vegetable or canola oil recommended)
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Optional Garnishes

  • Chopped green onions, for garnish
  • Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish
  • Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients: Finely mince the fresh garlic cloves and measure out your chili flakes or finely slice fresh chili peppers. Crack the eggs into a bowl, then whisk lightly with a pinch of salt and black pepper to season evenly.
  2. Heat the Pan and Add Oil: Warm a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the cooking oil. Heat until the oil is shimmering to ensure the garlic sizzles gently without burning.
  3. Sauté Garlic and Chili: Add the minced garlic and chili flakes or fresh chili to the hot oil. Stir continuously for about 30 seconds until fragrant and slightly golden to release aromatic oils.
  4. Cook the Eggs: Pour the whisked eggs into the pan, swirling gently to combine with the garlic and chili evenly. Let them cook undisturbed for a few moments until the edges start to set.
  5. Stir Gently and Finish: Using a spatula, gently stir and fold the eggs, cooking until they are softly set but still moist. Remove from heat immediately to preserve the creamy texture.

Notes

  • Use fresh garlic and quality chili for the best flavor intensity.
  • Add chili gradually and taste as you cook to control the heat.
  • Cook eggs on medium-low heat for soft, tender curds rather than dry, rubbery texture.
  • A non-stick skillet is recommended to prevent sticking and ease cleanup.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs or toasted sesame seeds for an extra flavor dimension.
