    EggSlut Fairfax Sandwich. Living in Seoul, I often get cravings for a greasy cheeseburger or a gourmet deli sandwich. I mean Korean food is great. But on the weekends, can you beat the taste of a simple cheeseburger? This past weekend, that craving hit me real early in the morning. I woke up found myself browsing Instagram trying to find a matjib. That's when I stumbled across EggSlut. Yea, I know... what a name!

    EggSlut is a restaurant in LA that's whipping up beautiful gourmet egg sandwiches. Their Fairfax Sandwich - in particular - caught my attention. I loved the simplicity: caramelized onions, siracha-mayo and silky scrambled eggs on a plush brioche bun. I started to imagine what it would taste like lying in bed. But it was too much. And within 15 minutes, I was in a pair of jeans and on my way to the local baker. Sadly, no brioche buns! I grabbed a ciabatta bun instead and scurried back to my house.

    So how did it taste? Exactly as advertised... marvelous! I loved the sweetness of the caramelized onions. The slightly spicy flavor of the sriracha-mayo and the soft silky texture of the scrambled eggs. If this breakfast sandwich was a tad-bit more healthy, I would be eating it throughout the week. But for now, I save it for the weekends 🙂

    Few cooking notes:

    • Caramelizing onions takes time - about 30-45 minutes. Keep that in mind.
    • No need to complicate the recipe with silky, creamy scrambled eggs. Make your scrambled eggs however you like!
    • No need to get brioche buns - will taste good on any bread.
    • Highly recommend the sharp cheddar cheese though!

    Course: Easy
    Servings: 1 person

    Ingredients

    • Brioche bun - 1 or use any bread
    • Sharp Cheddar Cheese - 1 slice

    Caramelized onions

    • Onion - 1 whole
    • Olive oil - 2-3 Tablespoons
    • Salt - 1 teaspoon

    Sriracha-Mayo

    • Mayonnaise - 2 Tablespoons
    • Sriracha - 1 teaspoon

    Scrambled Eggs

    • Eggs - 3 
    • Butter - 1 Tablespoon
    • Chives - 2 Tablespoons
    • Salt - few shakes 

    Instructions

    Make caramelized onions

    • Cut onion in half. Then cut into thin strips. 
    • Put olive oil (2-3 Tablespoons) into frying pan. Place on medium-heat. Once it's hot, place onion slices in. Season with salt (1 teaspoon). Separate any clumps and place evenly around the pan. 
    • Now don't touch the onion slices. Let them cook on one side and develop a slight char. It should take about 3-5 minutes.
    • Flip it over with a spatula. And let them cook on the other side for 3-5 minutes.
    • Now, reduce to a low-heat. And let the onions continue to reduce for another 15-30 minutes. Stir once-in-a-while and check that it doesn't burn.
    • Once the onions get deep brown color and turn mushy, take them off the heat. Set aside for later. 

    Prep Sandwich

    • Place some butter in your frying pan. And toast your sandwich buns. 
    • Next, make the sandwich spread: Mix Mayonnaise (2 Tablespoons) with Sriracha (1 teaspoon)
    • Spread generous amount of the sriracha-mayo onto the toasted buns. 

    Make Scrambled Eggs & Finish

    • Crack 3 eggs into a cold frying-pan. Place a scoop of cold butter (1 Tablespoon) into the pan as well. 
    • Beat the 3 eggs together. (Note: Don't worry about stirring in the piece of cold butter - it will melt later)
    • Now, place your frying-pan on a medium-high heat. Then continuously stir the eggs with a rubber or wooden spatula. Keep stirring and don't stop! Once the eggs start to curdle, take the frying pan off the heat and keep stirring until you get a oatmeal-like consistency. (Note: You can always place it back on the heat if it needs to cook some more)
    • Now, garnish the eggs with chives (2 Tablespoons) and season with salt (few shakes). 
    • Place the silky eggs on the bun.
    • Place the caramelized onions over the egg. 
    • Finally, pour yourself a glass of orange juice and Bon Appetit!
