Prepare the Rice:
If you don’t have pre-cooked rice, cook 1 cup of white rice according to package instructions. Keep it warm.
Cook the Egg:
Heat a small pan over medium heat and add butter.
Crack the egg into the pan and cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still slightly runny (or to your preferred doneness).
Assemble the Bowl:
Place the warm rice in a serving bowl.
Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over the rice. Stir lightly to coat the grains.
Add the Egg:
Gently place the cooked egg on top of the rice.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes (if using) over the bowl.
Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
For extra flavor, sprinkle furikake seasoning or drizzle more soy sauce as desired.
Enjoy:
Mix everything together before eating to combine the creamy egg yolk with the rice and seasonings.
