Directions

These are not your sloppy, overly greasy and salty egg sandwiches. They are relatively quick to prepare, but should not be rushed. Have all your sandwich elements ready before you cook the egg as you should be fully present to avoid over cooking your sandwich’s star.

 

Whisk egg with fish sauce until well incorporated and egg is very well beaten. In a non-stick frying pan, heat oil over medium and fry cabbage, carrot and onion until soft. add gochujang and fry another minute to caramelize the sauce. Add margarine, let melt, add egg to pan. Swirl to cover the entire pan, and let it cook slowly. Once most of the egg is cooked, using spatula, cut your egg in half. Flip each half over to finish cooking the top side, remove from heat right away.
