Chinese 5-Spice Fried Eggs with Coconut Aminos

This is my favorite way to have a fried egg. The flavors are bold and exciting. I just fry up my eggs, sprinkle on a little Chinese 5-spice powder and serve it doused in coconut aminos and garnished with chopped green onion. This is really good with added sautéed shiitake mushrooms, which I posted a photo of on my Instagram page. It is the quickest meal which only need a spoonful of honey to balance it. I only eat one egg at a time, since Ray Peat said eggs are a powerful protein and need a lot of sugar to balance them. I get mine corn and soy free. Here is my email to Dr. Raymond Peat…

Me:
“Good morning Dr. Peat, I hope the day finds you well! When do you think is the best time to consume eggs? Because of the sleepy tryptophan in the egg whites and their “powerful protein”. that you say needs a lot of sugar to balance, I would think they would be most beneficial at night . On the other hand you don’t recommend proteins at night, for better sleep, so maybe they are a better daytime food?”

RAY PEAT:
“Having only one egg per meal, with plenty of juice, there is seldom a problem. Blood sugar is more stable in the middle of the day.“
