Wait… (chew) …isn’t this… (chew) …supposed to be… a tech blog?!

!? Chew chew?!

No matter what he thought in his head, his body honestly licked the very last grain of rice clean off the plate.

Cloverta flushed red, the veins on his forehead bulging, and argued, “Cooking counts as technology too… cooking! …A programmer’s business is all technical!” Then came a string of baffling phrases, things like “add an appropriate amount of salt” and “a little,” which made everyone burst into laughter: the comments section was filled with cheerful air.

Ahem… back to the point.

Welcome to the blog’s brand-new section — the “Solo Meal” series. In this section, I’ll be summarizing various recipes I’ve collected online, and I hope they’ll be helpful to everyone.

3 Ingredients, 5 Seasonings

0. Cook the rice

Uh, just cook however much rice you want to eat.

For one person, a typical portion is 3/4 to 1 rice cup.

Once the rice is cooked, serve it into a large bowl or plate in advance.

1. Prep the ingredients

1. Sauce

Take a bowl.

Add:

• 2 spoons light soy sauce
• 1/2 to 2/3 spoon dark soy sauce
• 1 spoon vinegar
• 1 spoon ketchup
• 1/2 spoon white sugar
• 3 spoons water

Then stir well and set aside.

2. Chop the vegetables

Cut the garlic cloves into pieces about the size of your index fingernail, and slice the green pepper.

Set them aside when done.

2. Start cooking

Turn to medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add just enough oil to thinly coat the bottom.

Crack in 4 eggs.

Sorry, the last egg broke qwq.

Once the bottoms of the eggs have mostly set like in the image above, add the garlic and green pepper.

Try to add the garlic into the gaps between the eggs where it can touch the oil, so it becomes more fragrant.

Count 30 seconds in your head. Then pour in the prepared sauce.

You can gently nudge the green pepper with a spatula so it soaks in the sauce.

Then count 60 seconds in your head.

And it’s ready to serve! Be careful not to cook it too long or it will burn — 60 seconds should be just right.

3. Enjoy~

Pour the eggs and sauce over the rice.

And then you’ll have a perfect, beautiful meal!
