Steamed egg with savory pork Patty is a comforting, nutrient-rich dish loved for its silky texture and umami flavor. Here’s a simple guide to making it at home.
### Ingredients
- For the patty: 150g ground pork, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 chopped green onion, a pinch of white pepper.
- For the egg: 3 eggs, 150ml warm water (or stock for richer taste), ½ tsp salt, a few drops of light soy sauce.
### Steps
1. Prepare the pork patty: Mix all patty ingredients in a bowl. Stir clockwise until sticky, then shape into a small patty (about 1cm thick). Set aside.
2. Make the egg mixture: Whisk eggs in a bowl, add warm water, salt, and light soy sauce. Stir gently to avoid bubbles. Strain through a sieve for extra smoothness.
3. Assemble: Place the pork patty in the center of a heatproof bowl. Carefully pour the egg mixture over it, leaving 1cm at the top to prevent overflow.
4. Steam: Cover the bowl with a lid (or foil). Steam in a preheated steamer over medium heat for 12-15 minutes, or until the egg is set but still slightly jiggly.
5. Finish: Drizzle ½ tsp sesame oil and chopped green onions on top. Serve hot with rice.
### Tips
- Use warm water (not hot) to keep the eggs tender.
- For a richer taste, substitute water with chicken or pork stock.
- Avoid oversteaming to maintain the custard-like texture.
