How to Make Fried Eggs with Miso Yogurt and Sesame Seeds

1. Prepare Miso Yogurt

Take a small bowl and mix together ½ cup of whole-milk plain yogurt with 2 teaspoons of mild white or yellow miso paste. Spread the yogurt-miso mixture evenly onto four plates.

2. Fry the Eggs

Heat 1½ tablespoons of sesame oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot and shimmering. Crack four large eggs into the hot oil, sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt, and fry for 2-3 minutes until edges are golden brown. Cover the skillet with a lid or sheet pan and let the eggs cook until the whites are just set.

3. Serve and Garnish

Carefully plate the cooked eggs on top of the yogurt-miso spread. Garnish each serving with thinly sliced scallions and 2 teaspoons of toasted sesame seeds. Optionally, drizzle some chili oil over the eggs.

Pitfalls and tips

Select the Right Miso

White miso, or Shiro miso, is recommended for its subtle sweetness that complements the yogurt.

Control the Miso-Yogurt Ratio

Start with one tablespoon of miso to half a cup of yogurt, adjusting to taste for umami intensity.

Quality Yogurt Matters

Use full-fat, plain Greek yogurt at room temperature for a creamy and tangy base.

Salt with Caution

Miso is naturally salty, so taste before adding additional salt to the yogurt mixture.

Timing is Everything

Have all components prepped for swift assembly and serving when the eggs are ready.
