Chinese Steamed Egg

Ingredients

• 3 large eggs
• 1.5 cups water (or chicken broth for extra flavor)
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp white pepper (optional)
• 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)
• 1 tbsp chopped green onions (for garnish)

Steps

1. In a bowl, beat the eggs gently until smooth.
2. Add water (or chicken broth) and mix well. Strain the mixture through a sieve to remove bubbles for a smoother texture.
3. Add salt and white pepper (if using), and stir gently.
4. Pour the mixture into a heatproof dish and cover with a lid or aluminum foil to prevent water droplets from falling onto the surface.
5. Steam over medium heat for 10-12 minutes, or until the custard is set but still tender.
6. Drizzle with sesame oil (if using) and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
