Recipe makes for 1 Serving

4 quail eggs

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 green onion, finely chopped

1⁄2 teaspoon sugar

1 clove garlic, finely minced

1 red Thai chile pepper, thinly sliced (optional)

1⁄4 teaspoon white pepper, freshly ground

2 teaspoons Fish Sauce

1 individual baguette

1⁄4 cup sliced cucumber

2 tablespoons củ kiệu, thinly sliced

Directions:

Crack the eggs into a small bowl, making sure not to break the yolks.

Heat the oil in a small saucepan. Once the oil is hot, add the green onion and sprinkle sugar.

Cook for 10 seconds, stirring constantly. Add the garlic and stir-fry for 20 seconds until fragrant and golden. 

Immediately pour in the eggs and sprinkle with the red Thai chile slices (if using).

Cover and let sit for 1 minute. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting.

The egg yolks should still be slightly runny at this point. Top with a sprinkle of white pepper. Cover and let sit for 2 minutes until the white part of the eggs is just set and it becomes opaque.

Drizzle with Fish Sauce. 


Slide the eggs onto a plate and serve them sizzling with the baguette, cucumber, and củ kiệu on a separate plate. Dip the bread into the yolk to absorb the egg flavors, and pick up the eggs with more bread.
