Chinese Coin-Purse Eggs With Ginger Spinach - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Ginger Spinach
1 tablespoon peanut oil
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 lb fresh spinach, cleaned, stemmed and patted dry
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1 teaspoon soy sauce (to taste)
Coin-Purse Eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 large eggs
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Preparation

Spinach: Set a wok or heavy skillet over high heat until very hot. Add both oils and heat until smoking, then add the ginger, garlic and red pepper flakes and stir-fry until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add the spinach and stir until slightly wilted but still brightly colored, no less than 1 minute.
Remove the wok from the heat and toss the spinach with the sherry and soy sauce. Turn the spinach onto a warmed platter and keep it warm while the eggs cook.
Coin-Purse Eggs: Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the oil, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan.
Crack each egg into a saucer and then add it to the hot oil, as for regular fried eggs. Cook until the bottoms are set, about 1 minute. Then fold each fried egg over into a half-moon shape, enclosing the yolk and pressing the edges of the white to seal it closed like a coin purse. I like my egg yolks pretty well 'set' so I let the egg cook for a while after folding it and then I carefully turn the 'purse' over so the other side can brown a bit.
Arrange the hot fried eggs on top of the ginger spinach and serve immediately.
Note: This is also a great way to fry eggs for a crowd since they take up less room in the pan and you can fit more inches.
