Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Spicy Gochujang Eggs
- Start by washing and slicing the green onions, separating the white and green parts for later use. Chop the garlic finely and slice the green chili pepper if desired.
- In a small bowl, combine the gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, oyster sauce, chicken bouillon powder, sugar, honey, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth.
- In a large pot, bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Gently add your eggs, stirring to keep yolks centered. Boil for 7 minutes, then transfer to ice water.
- Heat neutral-tasting oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the white parts of green onions and chopped garlic, cooking for another minute.
- Reduce heat to low, then pour the seasoning paste over the beef mixture. Sauté for 2 minutes.
- Pour in remaining water, bring to a simmer, and add peeled eggs. Simmer for 7 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining green onion tops, sliced chili peppers, toasted sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Allow to meld for couple of minutes.
- Scoop hot steamed rice onto plates, nestle simmered eggs on top, and drizzle with sauce.
