Cook the linguine in boiling water until al dente, then drain.
Reserve a bit of pasta water to adjust the sauce consistency later.
Mix soy sauce, sriracha, and brown sugar in a small bowl.
Taste the sauce and adjust the sweetness or spiciness to your liking.
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, then sauté minced garlic and red pepper flakes until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it can turn bitter.
Whisk the egg and cook it in the skillet, stirring gently until set.
Cook the egg gently to keep it soft and tender.
Add the cooked linguine and sauce to the skillet, tossing to coat evenly.
Add a splash of reserved pasta water if the sauce is too thick.
