Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Eggs: Crack the 3 eggs into a bowl and beat them until they are well mixed. Set aside.
- Broccoli: If not already done, cut the broccoli into small florets. Rinse and drain them.
2. Toast the Sesame Seeds:
- Place a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds.
- Toast the sesame seeds for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly until they are golden brown and fragrant. Be careful not to burn them.
- Remove the toasted sesame seeds from the skillet and set them aside.
- In the same skillet, add the olive oil and heat over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the broccoli florets.
- Stir-fry the broccoli for 4-5 minutes, until it is tender but still crisp. You can add a splash of water to the pan and cover it to help steam the broccoli if necessary.
- Remove the broccoli from the skillet and set it aside.
- Reduce the heat to medium. Add the sesame oil to the skillet.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet.
- Let the eggs cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, until they start to set.
- Gently stir and fold the eggs until they are fully cooked but still soft. You should have thin ribbons of eggs.
- Return the broccoli to the skillet with the eggs.
- Sprinkle in the red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
- Toss everything together gently until the broccoli and eggs are mixed well and heated through.
- Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the stir-fry.
- Give everything a final toss.
- Serve hot, either on its own or over a bed of steamed rice for a complete meal.
Tips:
- Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan over medium heat until they are golden brown to enhance their flavor.
- Use fresh broccoli for the best texture and taste, but frozen broccoli can be a good substitute in a pinch.
- Cook the eggs gently to ensure they remain soft and create beautiful ribbons in the dish.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of red pepper to suit your spice preference.
- Serve the stir-fry immediately for the best flavor and texture.
