Ingredients

  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Water, for boiling

How to Make Green Rice Bowl with Egg

  1. Begin by rinsing the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming gummy.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 1 3/4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed.
  3. While the rice is cooking, bring a small pot of water to a gentle boil. Carefully add the eggs and boil for 6-7 minutes for a soft-boiled texture. Once done, transfer the eggs to an ice bath to stop the cooking process.
  4. In a blender or food processor, combine the fresh spinach with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  5. Once the rice is cooked, stir in the spinach mixture until the rice is evenly coated in the vibrant green color.
  6. Peel the cooled eggs and slice them in half. Set aside.
  7. To assemble the bowls, divide the green rice among serving bowls. Top each bowl with a soft-boiled egg, drizzle with soy sauce, and sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped cilantro on top.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips for the Best Results

  • For perfectly soft-boiled eggs, keep an eye on the time – it’s key!
  • Use fresh spinach for the best flavor and color.
  • Adjust the amount of soy sauce according to your taste preference.
  • Add a squeeze of lime for a zesty twist!

Easy Variations

  • Swap jasmine rice for brown rice or quinoa for a different grain.
  • Add sautéed mushrooms or shredded carrots for extra veggies.
  • Top with sliced avocado for creaminess.
  • Use tamari instead of soy sauce for a gluten-free option.

What to Serve With It

  • A side of steamed edamame for a protein boost.
  • Fresh cucumber salad for a crunchy contrast.
  • Miso soup for a warm, comforting addition.
  • Crispy tempura vegetables for more texture.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave, adding a splash of water to keep the rice moist. Soft-boiled eggs are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store them separately if needed.
