Method (15 Mins Total)

1. Stir the Soy, Honey & Garlic in a Small Cup
Stir together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon water in a small cup. Set it next to the stove so it is ready the moment the eggs come out.
2. Fry the Eggs Until Lacy & Crisp at the Rim
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a seasoned cast-iron skillet over medium-high until shimmering. Crack in the eggs and fry for about 3 minutes without flipping, until the edges of the whites turn golden-brown and blistered while the yolks stay soft.
3. Wilt the Spinach & Bubble the Garlic Glaze
Scoop warm rice into two bowls and slide the fried eggs on top. Toss the baby spinach into the hot skillet for 45 seconds, pour in the soy-honey mixture and let it bubble for 15 seconds, then spoon the greens and pan glaze around the eggs.

Cooking Tips

Stir the soy, honey, garlic, and water together in a cup before turning on the stove. The glaze finishes in seconds, and honey scorches quickly in a hot pan.
A tablespoon of water in the glaze slows scorching and gives it enough liquid to coat the spinach.
Slide the fried eggs onto the rice first, then wilt the spinach in the empty pan. Steam from the spinach softens crisp egg edges.
Fry the eggs right before eating so the edges stay crisp.

Variations

Less sweet

Cut the honey from 1 tablespoon to 1 teaspoon and add a splash of rice vinegar or chili crisp at the table.

Set yolks

Tilt the pan and baste the tops of the whites and yolks with hot oil using a metal spoon for the final 30 seconds.
