Ingredients
Method
Techniques
  • 8–10 pieces shrimp
  • ⅓ tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp diced spring onion
  • ¼ tsp salt
Season the shrimp with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 3 whole large eggs
  • 1 cup water
Crack 3 large eggs and beat them; add 1 cup water and 1/3 tsp salt. No pepper, garlic or spices in the egg: particles ruin the smooth texture.
Pass the egg through a fine sieve to remove bubbles, pressing any left in the sieve through with a spatula.
Steam on high heat about 6 minutes.
Place the shrimp gently on top of the very soft egg, cover and steam 2 more minutes until the shrimp turn pink.
  • 2 tsp water
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • sesame oil
Mix 2 tsp water, 1 tsp soy sauce and a few drops of sesame oil.
Soy sauce dressing and serving
Sprinkle diced spring onion on top and pour over the sauce.
