Step 1 of 3

Prepare Ingredients

  • Remove roots from spinach, wash thoroughly, and place in a colander.
  • Blanch the spinach in boiling water, then drain.
  • Crack 2 eggs into a bowl and beat until well mixed.

Step 2 of 3

Cook the Eggs

  • Heat a pan over medium heat. Add 10ml cooking oil.
  • Once the oil is hot, pour in the egg mixture.
  • Cook over medium heat for 15 seconds, first forming an egg pancake, then use a spatula to cut it into small pieces.
  • Turn off heat and transfer the egg pieces to a plate. Don't wash the pan.

Step 3 of 3

Stir-Fry Spinach and Combine

  • Turn the heat back on and add 5ml cooking oil to the pan.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the blanched spinach and stir-fry over high heat for 15 seconds.
  • Add the egg pieces and stir-fry until well combined.
  • Add 5g salt and 100ml water, then stir-fry over high heat for 10 seconds.
  • Turn off heat and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Blanching the spinach helps remove any bitterness and makes it more tender.
  • Don't overcook the eggs - they should be fluffy and slightly runny when you first cut them into pieces.
  • The pan doesn't need to be washed between cooking the eggs and spinach - the residual oil adds flavor.
  • For more servings, simply multiply the ingredients proportionally.
  • Serve hot for the best taste and texture.
