Recipe

Wash the green peppers thoroughly, remove the stems, and chop them into 1.5cm pieces.
Heat a pan over medium heat, add generous vegetable oil, and crack in 3 eggs directly into the pan.
Sprinkle salt evenly, then use chopsticks to break the yolks gradually while stirring gently to form soft scrambled eggs. Mix briefly to create a loose scramble.
Once the eggs are slightly cooked, transfer them immediately to a plate to prevent overcooking.
Clean the pan lightly, then return it to medium heat and add the chopped green peppers.
After the peppers have been lightly sautéed, add anchovy fish sauce 1/2 tablespoon and minced garlic 1/2 tablespoon to enhance the savory flavor. Continue cooking for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Reduce the heat to low, then add the previously set-aside scrambled eggs back into the pan.
Sprinkle pepper 2 pinches and sesame seeds 1/2 tablespoon, then gently mix until well combined without breaking up the eggs. Serve hot.

Chop green peppers into 1.5cm pieces. Crack 3 eggs directly into a heated pan, sprinkle salt, and scramble them briefly before setting aside.
Sauté the green peppers, then add anchovy fish sauce and minced garlic to build umami flavor, cooking for 2 minutes.
Lower heat, add the reserved scrambled eggs, and gently mix with pepper and sesame seeds to finish.

Cooking tips

Cracking the eggs directly into the pan instead of beating them in a bowl allows the yellow and white to blend naturally, resulting in a brighter, more vibrant color.
For a soft, moist texture, remove the eggs just before they’re fully cooked—this prevents them from becoming dry and rubbery.
Instead of salt, using a small amount of anchovy fish sauce when stir-frying the peppers adds a rich umami flavor without any fishy aftertaste, turning this into a refined, bistro-style side dish.
