A side dish made by gently simmering boiled eggs in a savory mixture of scallions, onions, chili paste, and tomato sauce.

Ingredients needed 3 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • The tomato spaghetti sauce adds a distinctive tangy acidity and rich seasoning that beautifully complements the gochujang, creating a powerful umami depth.
  • Be sure to sauté the onions and scallions until they develop a golden-brown hue—this allows their natural sweetness and aroma to fully infuse into the sauce, enhancing the overall flavor.
  • Never boil cold eggs directly in hot water, as the sudden temperature change can cause cracking. Always let eggs sit at room temperature before cooking.

Recommended for

  • Those looking for a spicy, flavorful twist instead of the usual bland soy sauce egg stew.
  • People who love a rich, sticky, mouth-watering broth that clings to rice, making every bite satisfying.
  • Beginners who want to easily follow a simple sequence to achieve a high-quality side dish with minimal effort.
