Chef's Note

The key to this dish is not overcooking the soft-boiled egg. If using leftover eggs, gently warm them by placing in hot (not boiling) water for 1 minute before serving. For meal prep, store the cooked oatmeal base and toppings separately, then assemble just before eating.

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats

  • 1 cup water

  • 1 tablespoon white miso paste

  • 1/2 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

  • 1 large leftover egg (soft-boiled)

  • 2 tablespoons green onions

  • 1/4 cup shiitake mushrooms

  • 1/2 cup baby spinach

  • 1/4 sheet nori seaweed

  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds

Instructions
  • 1

    If you don't have a leftover soft-boiled egg, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Gently lower 1 large egg into the water and cook for exactly 6 minutes. Transfer to an ice bath immediately, then peel when cool enough to handle.

  • 2

    In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup rolled oats with 1 cup water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.

  • 3

    Cook the oats for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to thicken.

  • 4

    While the oats cook, heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup sliced shiitake mushrooms and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened and lightly browned.

  • 5

    Reduce the oatmeal heat to low and whisk in 1 tablespoon miso paste until fully dissolved.

  • 6

    Stir in 1/2 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce and the sautéed mushrooms.

  • 7

    Add 1/2 cup baby spinach and stir until just wilted, about 30 seconds.

  • 8

    Transfer the savory oatmeal to a serving bowl.

  • 9

    Slice the soft-boiled egg in half and place on top of the oatmeal.

  • 10

    Garnish with 2 tablespoons sliced green onions, nori strips, and 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds.

  • 11

    Serve immediately while hot.
