Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • 3-4 large eggs (serving for 1 or 2)
  • 3 tbsp. cooking oil – the best option is some vegetable cooking oil plus animal fat for example lard.
  • 2 Thai green peppers (smashed and cut into sections)
  • 2 Thai red peppers (smashed and cut into sections)
  • 6 cloves garlic (peeled and smashed)
  • 4 scallions (, seperate white part and green part)
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1 tbsp. light soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp. black vinegar
  • Optional: chopped scallions for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Crack eggs into a bowl. Don't beat them.

  2. 2

    Place your wok or frying pan over high heat. Add oil and let the oil heat up until it starts to shimmer and smoke slightly - this takes about 30 seconds.

  3. 3

    Pour the egg mixture into the center of the hot oil. You'll hear a satisfying sizzle! Let it sit for just 2-3 seconds without touching it. Then turn over and separate each of them.

  4. 4

    Add garlic, scallion white and chili pepper, fry until aromatic.

  5. 5

    Drizzle light soy sauce, a very small pinch of salt. Then mix in scallion green parts. Add black vinegar along the edges of your pan. Mix well and serve well.
