Gyeran Bap (Egg Rice)
Gyeran bap is a lifesaving Korean pantry meal of fried eggs stirred into steamed white rice. In this version, the eggs fry and puff up slightly in a shallow bath of browned butter. Soy sauce, which reduces in the pan, seasons the rice, as does a final smattering of salty gim, or roasted seaweed. A dribble of sesame oil lends comforting nuttiness, and runny yolks act as a makeshift sauce for the rice, slicking each grain with eggy gold. (You can cook the eggs to your preferred doneness, of course.) This dinner-for-one can be scaled up to serve more: Just double, triple or quadruple all of the ingredient amounts, using a larger skillet or repeating the steps in a small one.
Ingredients
  • ½ tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 cup steamed white rice, preferably short- or medium-grain
  • 1 (5-gram) packet roasted, salted seaweed, such as gim (optional)
