🥄 Texture

Creamy and rich from the slightly runny yolks and melting brie combined with crumbled salty cheese, with the rice providing a tender, slightly sticky base. Crisp, buttery toast strips add a pronounced crunchy contrast to the soft eggs and rice.

👃 Aroma

Warm, buttery and toasty aromas from the fried eggs, butter and garlic toast are front and center, joined by creamy, slightly funky cheese notes from the brie. A subtle savory/umami background from the vegetal cooking sauce and salty cheese rounds out the scent profile.

🍷 Pairs Well With

A dry, crisp white wine (Sauvignon Blanc) or a light sparkling wine (Prosecco); non-alcoholic options: iced green tea or sparkling water with lemon to cut the richness.

🥗 Side Dishes

Mixed green salad with a bright vinaigrette, quick pickles or kimchi for acidity and contrast, or simply steamed greens (broccoli, bok choy or spinach) to add freshness and balance.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cook the rice according to package directions if not already cooked. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add bread strips and toast until golden and crispy (about 3-4 minutes), stirring occasionally. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same pan, add 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Crack both eggs into the pan and fry until the whites are set but yolks are still slightly runny (about 3-4 minutes). Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Push the eggs to the side of the pan. Add the cooked rice to the pan with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and vegetal cooking sauce. Mix gently and warm through for 2 minutes. Top with crumbled salty cheese and brie cheese slices, letting them melt slightly.

  5. 5

    Divide the rice mixture into bowls, top each with a fried egg, and scatter crispy toast strips on top. Serve immediately.
