Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Add ground pork, breaking it apart with a spoon, and cook until no pink remains, ~5 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in minced ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add soy sauce and brown sugar, stirring to coat the pork in a glossy sauce.

  3. Step 3

    Crack both eggs into the skillet, nestling them among the pork. Reduce heat to medium and cover loosely; cook until whites set but yolks still jiggle, ~4 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add shredded cabbage to the skillet and stir gently until it begins to soften, ~2 minutes. The cabbage should still have a little crunch.

  5. Step 5

    Divide warm rice between two bowls. Spoon the glossy pork, soy eggs, and cabbage over the top with all the sauce.

Tools you’ll need
