Korean Egg Fried Rice is a simple yet flavorful dish that combines the comforting textures of rice with the richness of egg yolks and the freshness of green onions. Unlike traditional fried rice, this Korean-style version uses separated egg yolks and whites for a unique texture and presentation. The rice is mixed with egg yolks and lightly fried, creating a golden color and a creamy flavor. It’s then paired with a thin, delicate layer of fried egg whites, making each bite both soft and satisfying. A hint of perilla oil adds a nutty aroma, giving this dish a subtle depth and distinctly Korean twist. Perfect for a quick, nutritious meal, Korean Egg Fried Rice is both visually appealing and deliciously comforting.

Directions

1. Step

Chop the green onion into small pieces. Separate the egg yolks and whites into two bowls. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the egg whites and mix well.

2. Step

In another bowl, add the cooked rice, egg yolks, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Mix thoroughly to combine.

3. Step

Heat a frying pan over medium heat. Pour in the egg white mixture and spread it thinly to make a thin egg layer. Fry until set, then transfer to a plate.

4. Step

Add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil to the same pan. Add the chopped green onion and stir-fry briefly until fragrant. Add the rice mixture with the egg yolks and stir-fry lightly. Drizzle in the perilla oil, stir-frying gently until everything is well combined and lightly golden.
