Steamed Water Eggs

Published by Angeleyes under Poultry, Simple Steaming

Bought 2 trays of 30pcs of eggs for Darrius birthday and we only used 1 tray… there is still a tray left in our fridge! It is certainly taking up space and those eggs might expire soon too! So, MIL has been telling us to quickly clear all the left over eggs and this is what I did today…. steam water eggs (jing-sui-tan). A very simple dish to prepare and can be ready in a jiffy too.

To get a silky smooth surface, wrap the plate with cling wrap so the water vapor will not drop on the eggs during the steaming process, if not it will be moonface! :P
