instructions
1. Boil 8 cups of water in a medium saucepan. When the water boils, gently set the eggs into the water and cook 4 minutes for soft yolks, 6 minutes for firmer yolks. Remove the eggs to a large bowl and cool them under cold running water.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, ginger, sugar, sesame oil, water, green onion and bell pepper.
3. Heat the peanut oil in a small sauté pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot, pour the sauce into the pan with the peanut oil. Stir to combine for 30 seconds or so, then remove the pan from the heat.
4. Peel the eggs and cut them in half. Spoon the sauce over them, and then top with slices of serrano and a sprinkling of fresh ground black pepper.

Thanks, this is the first site I found where I was told how to prepare spring onions for cooking. I didn't whether you used the white or greeen parts or both.
