Gyeran-jjigae is the perfect cozy dish to warm your heart and fill your belly tonight!

1

Start by preparing your ingredients. Dice the tofu into small cubes and chop the green onion into thin slices. This ensures everything cooks evenly and quickly.

2

In a medium pot, add 2 cups of water and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat.

3

Once the water is boiling, add the diced tofu and soy sauce. Allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes, letting the tofu absorb the flavors.

4

Next, add the teaspoon of sesame oil and the tablespoon of gochugaru. Stir gently for another 2 minutes to mix in the spiciness and aroma.

5

Carefully crack the 4 eggs into the pot one by one, maintaining the yolks intact for a beautiful presentation. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes until the egg whites are set but yolks remain slightly runny.

6

Finally, sprinkle the chopped green onion on top. Season it with salt to taste. Allow it to cook for an additional minute.

7

Turn off the heat and serve hot with a side of rice. Enjoy the comfort of your homemade Gyeran-jjigae!
