Something about topping a rice bowl with a fried egg transforms it from good to great. We love the combination of flavors and protein-rich ingredients that form the base of this one-bowl dinner.

Make

  1. Heat a non-stick frying pan or skillet over medium heat. Add first part of oil and white parts of green onions to heated oil. Saute until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and saute until very tender, ~3 minutes. Add spinach and saute until spinach is wilted and excess water has steamed off, ~3 minutes. Add edamame and sesame sauce. Cook just until everything is warmed through. Transfer mushroom mixture to a mixing bowl and cover to keep warm. Wipe out pan and return to heat.
  2. To hot pan, add second part of oil. To hot oil, add eggs and fry until cooked to desired doneness (you can flip them over halfway through cooking, or just cook on one side for sunny-side up eggs).
  3. Reheat leftover rice (from Tuesday) briefly in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of water or broth to prevent sticking.
  4. Spoon rice into individual serving bowls and spoon mushroom mixture over top. Top each bowl with a fried egg and then green parts of green onions. Season at the table with salt and pepper and hot sauce (if you’d like). Enjoy!
