Scale
Creamy Avocado Sauce
- 2 avocados, flesh scooped out from skin
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Olive oil and water to thin as needed
Jammy Soft-boiled Eggs
- 8 large eggs
Sauteed Bok Choy
- 1 teaspoon minced ginger
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 big bunches bok choy, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1–2 tablespoons cooking oil (vegetable or sesame oil preferred)
Assembly
- 2 cups cooked brown rice
- 1/2 cup kimchi, chopped
- 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocado Sauce: Blend the avocados, fish sauce, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a blender until smooth. Add olive oil and water gradually to achieve a thick but pourable consistency.
- Cook the Eggs: Place the eggs in a saucepot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then lower to a gentle boil and cook for 6 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool slightly. Crack and peel the eggs carefully.
- Saute the Bok Choy: In a large skillet over medium heat, add oil. Sauté the ginger and garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the bok choy and cook for 5-10 minutes until tender and vibrant green.
- Assemble the Bowls: Divide cooked brown rice among four bowls. Top each with chopped kimchi, sautéed bok choy, and a peeled jammy soft-boiled egg. Drizzle with the avocado sauce and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.
Notes
- You can prepare the soft-boiled eggs a day ahead and store them in the refrigerator.
- Adjust the amount of water in the avocado sauce for desired consistency.
- Feel free to add other vegetables like radishes or carrots for extra crunch and color.
- Use firm, fresh eggs for the best jammy yolks.
- Ensure the bok choy is chopped into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
