This was a good quick lunch while working from home. I think 2 tablespoons cornstarch was too much. It made the sauce gloopy and I had to add more water to the pan. Next time I will just do 1 tbsp. Other than that the flavor was great!
sauce tasted amazing but congealed into slop in the pan definitely way too much cornstarch as another commented
Very delicious, I cut the recipe in half as I only needed two eggs for myself and it still made plenty of sauce. I added chili flakes for some extra heat. The sauce and egg yolk mix together so well with the rice. Amazing flavor.
Great flavor! Did half recipe and it was a satisfying dinner for one. Similar to other comments, the cornstarch was too much. Will cut by half and definitely do this again. Thank you!!
Yeah, this was very good 😋
Spicy Sweet and Sour Fried Eggs really elevated my egg game!
