Make the Thai Fried Eggs:
Make theย 4 Thai Fried Eggs and use this recipe. Fry until the yolk is set.

Make the dressing by in a small bowl mixing up theย 1 minced garlic clove, and 1-4 fresh Thai chilies,ย 3 tbsp lime juice, 2 tbsp chopped palmย sugarย or brownย sugar, 2 tbsp fish sauceย until the sugar is dissolved.
Mix it up and serve:
Cut the eggs into 4 pieces like in the shape of a triangle. I like to have the yolk in each part since it’s prettier, but no big deal if you don’t.
