神奇的小王(10)

Subtitle: Steamed Eggs

I think steamed egg can easily beat jello on the taste and under non-solid food catergory unlike quiche. So here we go.

2 eggs, cooked shrimp (optional), salt, big bowl.

Mix eggs with 1 cup (or ¾ cup) of water. The point is that 1 cup of water makes it tender, ¾ cup of water makes it taste more eggy.

Dash salt (I suggest not to put too much slat, you can always add more salt if it is not salty enough),

Put in shrimp, but totally ok, if you do not have those. It just add some seafood flavor to eggs. Mix them well.

Put bowl into the big pot. Make sure the egg is only half way full in the bowl, it will ‘grow’ while you steam them. Fill water in the big pot, water should be half high of the bowl. Not too much water in the pot since when water boils it is easily spill into the bowl and dilutes the eggs, nor too little of water, the pot will dry once the water became steam. Anyhow, put on the lid, turn the stove to high for 15 min – 20 min.

Put some sesame oil or vinegar for richer flavor. Although it does not look so good from the picture, I am sure you will like how it taste, you do not even have to chew them.

PS, Do not forget yellow banana, Jello is so not nutritious.
