Ingredients

• 4 pieces eggs
• 3 stalks scallions
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons white pepper (optional)
• 1 teaspoons soy sauce (optional)
• 2 tablespoons oil (vegetable or neutral)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the scallions thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

Finely chop the scallions, separating the white and green parts.

Step 3

Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the salt, white pepper (if using), and soy sauce (if using).

Step 4

Beat the eggs with a fork or whisk until the mixture is uniform and slightly frothy.

Step 5

Add the chopped scallions (both white and green parts) to the egg mixture and stir to combine.

Step 6

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the oil, swirling it to coat the pan evenly.

Step 7

Once the oil is hot, pour the egg and scallion mixture into the skillet. Let the eggs sit undisturbed for 10-15 seconds to begin setting.

Step 8

Using a spatula, gently push the eggs from the edges toward the center of the skillet, allowing the uncooked egg to flow outwards.

Step 9

Continue to gently fold and cook the eggs until they are just set but still slightly glossy. Avoid overcooking for optimal texture.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the scallion eggs to a serving plate. Serve immediately with steamed rice or toast.
