How To: Chop Scallions
step-by-step
instructions
Prepare the ingredients
1 Prepare the ingredients

Wash, dry, and thinly slice the scallions. Thinly slice the cheese. In a bowl, combine the ketchup and as much of the gochujang as you’d like, depending on how spicy you’d like the dish to be.

Cook the scallions & eggs
2 Cook the scallions & eggs

In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced scallions. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until softened. Using a spoon, arrange the scallions into 2 circles, keeping them separate. Crack an egg on top of each circle of scallions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until the egg whites are set.

Add the cheese
3 Add the cheese

Carefully flip the eggs and scallions, then evenly top with the sliced cheese. Loosely cover the pan with foil and cook 2 to 4 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the egg yolks are cooked to your desired degree of doneness. Carefully transfer to a work surface. Wipe out the pan.

Toast the buns & serve your dish
4 Toast the buns & serve your dish

Halve the buns. Add the halved buns, cut side down, to the same pan. Toast on medium-high 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until lightly browned. Transfer to a work surface. Assemble the sandwiches using the toasted buns, spicy ketchup, and cheesy eggs. Enjoy!
