This is a very simple egg dish that my dad often made for me as a kid.
The eggs have a cooked consistency of soft silken tofu and custard, flavoured with a little salt, pepper and soy sauce.
1. Fill a saucepan with around 2cm of water and bring to boil.
2. In a small bowl (500ml capacity) crack in two eggs.
3. Whisk the eggs together.
4. Add in water 2/3 full. So ratio of egg to water is roughly 1:3
5. Add in a pinch of salt, and whisk the eggs and water together.
6. Top with ground pepper.
7. Place the bowl in the saucepan of boiling water.
8. Cover and cook for 15 minutes. Steam on a low-med heat.
9. Spoon the egg into a serving bowl.
10. Add some soy sauce and enjoy!
Those eggs look nice and fluffy. I shall try this one out.
ReplyDeleteKaren told me she tried it in the microwave too. Is it as good?
OMG, Karen made it in the microwave! I have never tried that.
ReplyDeleteI see a lot of cookbooks on microwave cooking and I tend to give it a miss cause it just doesn't seem right. Microwave is good for reheating food but I don't know about cooking food.
Have you ever done any microwave cooking?
