Chinese Steamed Eggs

Chinese Steamed Eggs

Silky smooth Chinese Steamed Eggs which are easy, tasty and comforting.

One of the easiest, tastiest and healthiest dishes you can make is Chinese Steamed Eggs. In fact, often on those nights when I am too tired to cook and I am lucky to find eggs in the fridge, I can whip up this dish to serve with some steamed rice (whether freshly cooked or defrosted from the freezer), and call it a meal. In fact, you could serve it with Steamed Rice with Corn and that’s your vegetable component also sorted!

Steaming is also a very healthy way to cook eggs, so you can make this dish and feel virtuous while eating it!

Chinese Steamed Eggs is a savoury dish where eggs are steamed to form a very soft-set and silky smooth custard. The texture is very similar to silken tofu. I would say that, if you are a fan of silken tofu, you will love Chinese Steamed Eggs.

The easiest version of this dish is served simply with a drizzle of soy sauce, but it can also form the base of other Chinese-style dishes, e.g. served underneath spicy, stir-fried minced meat.

Ingredients:
For the Chinese Steamed Eggs
  • 4 eggs, approx. 53 g each
  • 400 ml (1 2/3 cups US) warm water
  • 1/2 teaspoon chicken stock powder or 1/2 chicken stock cube (optional)
  • pinch of sea salt

To Serve
  • soy sauce, to taste
  • toasted sesame oil, to taste (optional)
  • fresh chives or spring onions, thinly sliced
  • coriander (cilantro), finely chopped (optional)
  • Homemade Chilli Oil, to taste (optional)
  • Steamed Jasmine Rice or Steamed Rice with Corn
