Step 1
Boil glass noodles in salted water until just tender, about 4–5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
Stir soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and sugar together in a small bowl until sugar dissolves.
Step 3
Toss warm noodles with the sauce until evenly coated. Set aside.
Step 4
Heat 1 tbsp neutral oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Crack both eggs into the pan.
Step 5
Fry until edges crisp and brown but yolks still jiggle when the pan tilts, about 3–4 minutes.
Step 6
Divide rice between two bowls. Top each with noodles, then slide a fried egg on top. Serve immediately.
