Simple Recipe - Steam Egg

Is a Monday blue, and the lazy me just cook a simple Steam Egg for lunch.

Steam Egg indeed is very easy but to steam a perfect smooth egg, there are few steps that I learned from my sister in law.

Ingredients

Egg

Water

Soy Sauce

Method

Put water into a wok for boiling

While waiting, open up an egg, pour into a bowl

Use the egg shell to measure the water, for 1 egg, use 1.5 shell of water

Add approximately 1 1/4 tablespoon of soy sauce

Gently mix the egg with water and soya sauce using a spoon. If you beat too hard, it will create lots of bubble. We do not want bubbles here.

Pour into a plate of bowl for steaming.

Once water in wok is boiling, put the plate of egg inside with medium fire. Do not cover the wok's lid completely, leave a small gap. Steam about 10 minutes.

Once done, you can garnish with some fried garlic, add a bit of soy sauce and sesame oil on top of egg.

Besides steam plain egg, just can steam egg mix with salty egg and century egg (cut into pieces) which we call it 3 treasures egg. This is equally easy and yummy.
