Here’s a recipe for braised eggs that are incredibly simple yet wonderfully soft and flavorful, making them a true ‘rice thief’! This recipe is perfect for those moments when you need a quick and satisfying home-cooked meal without any side dishes prepared. The secret to this super easy braised egg dish is definitely the ‘minced garlic’! Let’s dive into the recipe!
Ingredients- 8 eggs
- 1 cup soy sauce (use a paper cup for measurement)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups water
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s boil the eggs. In a pot, add enough water to cover the eggs. Add 1 tablespoon of coarse salt and 1 tablespoon of vinegar to the water and stir well. This helps the eggshells peel easily and prevents the eggs from cracking while boiling.
Step 2
Once the water starts boiling, start your timer. For hard-boiled eggs, about 11 minutes is ideal. After boiling, immediately remove the eggs and place them in cold water to cool down quickly. Once cooled, carefully peel the shells. Be careful not to overcook, as the yolks can become too dry and crumbly.
Step 3
Now, let’s make the delicious braising liquid! In a bowl, combine 1 cup of soy sauce, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 2 cups of water. Mix them well. The key and secret to this recipe is adding a generous tablespoon of minced garlic. Since we’re not using any other broth ingredients, the garlic provides a wonderfully deep and rich flavor!
Step 4
Pour the prepared soy sauce mixture into the pot where you boiled the eggs. Add the peeled boiled eggs to the pot. Let the eggs simmer in the sauce over medium-low heat, allowing the flavor to penetrate the eggs. Gently roll the eggs occasionally to ensure they are evenly coated and infused with the sauce.
Step 5
Voila! Your super simple braised eggs are ready! For busy homemakers, speed is everything. This incredibly easy braised egg dish is a lifesaver when you need a quick and satisfying meal without any side dishes. We highly encourage you to give it a try!
