Oriental Steamed Egg

It’s been quite a while since I last had steamed egg. It is simple and easy to prepare and yummilicious for those who love eggs. I used 3 types of eggs being duck egg , century egg and chicken egg . Though this is a high cholesterol dish , we do treat ourselves to it once in a blue moon :) In my household, the word moderation is practiced. My Piggies always make sure that the word moderation drums into my brain! And I remembered teaching them their ABC just like when ? 18 years ago ? Now, they are teaching me back… " moderation in whatever you do or eat , Mommy ! " .. * eye balls rolling back **

I steamed the eggs in this rice bowl

covered with the aluminium foil

fried garlic oil for garnishing mmmm.....

smooth egg texture

delicious century egg at the bottom

partial duck egg yolk found at the bottom..mmmm
