Egg dumpling 

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • Small handful of Korean Dangmyeon Noodles (Meausre about the width of a quarter)
  • 3 whole Eggs
  • Small piece of Carrot (length of your pinky finger)
  • ⅓ of a whole Onion
  • 1 or 2 stalks of Green Onion
  • ⅓ of a whole Chili Pepper (optional)

Seasoning

  • ¾ Tablespoon Soy Sauce
  • ¾ Tablespoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 teaspoon (!) Salt
  • 1 teaspoon (!) Sugar

Instructions

Boil Dangmyeon Noodles

  1. Fill a pot with water. Place on high heat. When it comes to a roaring boil, place in a small handful of Dangmyeon Noodles. Set a timer for 7 minutes and boil away on medium-high heat. (Reduce to medium heat if it boils too violently). In the meanwhile, go prep your veggies.
  2. Finely mince Onion (⅓ a whole) and Carrot (pinky-length piece) into small pieces. Dice 1-2 stalks of Green Onion into thin pieces as well. Then de-seed 1 chili pepper (or 1 jalapeno), and finely mince ⅓ of it into small pieces (this ingredient is optional). Place all of the veggies into a large mixing bowl.
  3. Once the timer goes off (at 7 minutes), quickly strain the noodles. Cool it down under cold water. Then shake off the excess water from the noodles. Place the boiled noodles into a separate mixing bowl. Use kitchen scissors to cut the noodles into small pieces – be thorough!
  4. Now, add these chopped noodles into the bowl with the other veggies. Crack in 3 eggs.

Season the egg mixture

  1. To the bowl, add-in Soy Sauce (¾ Tablespoon), Sesame Oil (¾ Tablespoon), Sugar (1 teaspoon!), Salt (1 teaspoon!)
  2. Give it a thorough mix – make sure everything gets mixed evenly!

Make Egg Dumplings

  1. Place some oil onto a non-stick frying pan. Place on medium-low heat. Once the oil gets hot, carefully scoop on two spoonfuls of the mixture and make small circular piles around the pan.
  2. Let it cook for 20-30 seconds so the bottom can set. Then use a spoon in one hand, and a spatula in another to carefully fold the eggs. Then flip the dumpling so the other side can cook through as well.
  3. Once it cooks through on both sides, place on a plate.
  4. Eat the mini dumplings with a bowl of hot rice and if you like – a dab of ketchup (+ tabasco).
  5. Note: If you find folding the small dumplings challenging, make them bigger. Use a soup ladle and fill it ¾ to the top! Enjoy and … have fun in the kitchen!
