Korean BBQ Style Grilled Eggs on the Arteflame Grill

Introduction

Korean BBQ style grilled eggs are a delicious and unique side dish that brings deep umami flavors with soy and sesame oil. When grilled on the Arteflame, eggs develop a slightly smoky taste, while the gentle heat of the flat cooktop ensures they cook evenly without burning. It's the perfect way to add a touch of Korean inspiration to your grilling experience.

Ingredients

• 6 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
• 1 green onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1 teaspoon butter

Instructions

Step 1: Fire up the Arteflame grill

1. Pour some vegetable oil on three paper napkins.
2. Place the soaked napkins inside the grill.
3. Stack firewood over the napkins and light the paper.
4. Allow the fire to establish and heat up for about 20 minutes.

Step 2: Prepare the eggs

1. Place the eggs near the outer edge of the Arteflame cooktop to ensure gentle heat while they cook.
2. Allow the eggs to cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
3. Once the shells begin to char slightly and the eggs feel firm, remove them from the grill.

Step 3: Peel and season

1. Let the eggs cool slightly before peeling.
2. In a bowl, mix soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes.
3. Roll the peeled eggs in the mixture until they are well coated.
4. Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions over the eggs before serving.

Tips

• Use fresh eggs for easier peeling after grilling.
• For extra smoky flavor, leave the eggs on the grill longer before peeling.
• Serve immediately for a warm, soft texture, or let them cool for a firmer bite.

Variations

• Spicy Gochujang Eggs: Mix a teaspoon of gochujang paste into the soy sauce for a bolder, spicier kick.
• Honey Garlic Eggs: Add a teaspoon of honey and minced garlic to the soy sauce for a sweet-savory twist.
• Coconut Aminos Version: Substitute soy sauce with coconut aminos for a slightly sweeter, soy-free alternative.
• Miso Butter Eggs: Melt miso into butter and brush over peeled eggs before serving.
• Charcoal Smoked Eggs: Leave the eggs near the hotter center of the Arteflame grill for a deeper smoky flavor.
