Silky Steamed Eggs with Dumplings
If you love smooth, delicate steamed eggs, you’re going to love this one. This recipe combines silky steamed eggs with frozen dumplings, giving you a comforting, nourishing dish made in one bowl and with almost no effort.
Ingredients
- 2 medium eggs about 100g
- 200 ml water (water to egg ratio 2:1)zzle water-to-egg ratio: 2:1 or 1.5:1; 2:1 gives a silkier texture!
- A pinch of salt
- 6-8 frozen dumplings
- Chopped spring onion for garnish
- Light soy sauce and sesame oil for drizzle
Instructions
- Whisk the eggs gently and mix with the water. Add a pinch of salt.
- Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer. Use a teaspoon to skim any bubbles on top—this keeps the final texture silky smooth.
- Add the frozen dumplings carefully into the bowl. Steam over hot water for 15 minutes. Keep the lid slightly ajar (use a chopstick to prop it) to prevent large bubbles from forming.
- Once done, fully cover the lid and let it rest for 3 minutes to finish cooking gently.
- Garnish and serve: Add chopped spring onion, drizzle with light soy sauce and sesame oil, and enjoy!
