 Chili-fried Eggs with Tomato Toasts
Book: Express Dinners by Liz Franklin (2012)

crumb: eggs fried in chili oil

Express Dinners includes “Chili-fried Eggs with Tomato Toasts”. Liz Franklin wrote it (2012). This British book collects 175 dinners that take 30 minutes or less. It includes chili-fried eggs on tomato toast.

Differences:

Popular internet chili crisp eggs fry eggs in chili crisp and sesame oil. The recipe serves them with green onions, sesame seeds and rice. The ancestor fries eggs in chili oil and pours more chili oil over them. It serves them on toast rubbed with fresh tomato. Both are eggs fried in chili oil. The online version uses crunchy chili crisp and sesame and goes over rice instead of tomato toast.
Match: Somewhat close
