Taiwanese Fried Egg Rice with Soy Sauce & Olive Oil

Sometimes the simplest dishes are the most comforting.

Fried egg rice is an easy Taiwanese-style comfort food made with just a few everyday ingredients. A freshly fried egg, warm steamed rice, fragrant olive oil, and savory soy sauce come together to create a satisfying meal in just minutes.

The key is to add the soy sauce after turning off the heat, allowing its aroma and flavor to blend with the egg without overheating the sauce.

Ingredients

• 1 bowl freshly cooked rice
• 1 egg
• DoYouBo Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• DoYouBo Soy Sauce

Instructions

1. Heat the pan
Preheat a frying pan before adding the olive oil.

2. Fry the egg
Crack the egg into the pan and cook over low heat until it reaches your preferred doneness. For extra texture, let the edges become slightly golden and crispy.

3. Add the soy sauce
Turn off the heat, then drizzle DoYouBo Soy Sauce over the fried egg.

4. Serve over warm rice
Place the fried egg over a bowl of freshly cooked rice.

5. Mix and enjoy
Break the egg into the rice and mix well, allowing the soy sauce, olive oil, egg yolk, and warm rice to come together.

Cooking Tips

• Preheating the pan helps prevent the egg from sticking.
• Cook the egg over low heat for better control over the yolk texture.
• Add the soy sauce after turning off the heat to preserve more of its aroma.
• A soft or runny yolk creates an especially creamy texture when mixed with warm rice.
• Add chopped scallions, sesame seeds, seaweed, or your favorite vegetables for extra flavor and texture.
