Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Alright, let’s prepare all the ingredients to make a delicious steamed egg! All you need are a fresh egg, salt, and water.
Step 2
Carefully crack 1 egg into a clean bowl. Using chopsticks or a fork, gently whisk the yolk and white together until well combined. You don’t need to whisk too vigorously.
Step 3
Now, add a pinch of salt to eliminate any eggy smell and season it. Then, slowly pour in 2-3 tablespoons of water. If you add too much water, the steamed egg might become too runny, so start with a little and add more as you check the consistency. Mix everything well.
Step 4
Place the bowl in the microwave and cook for about 1 minute. The cooking time might vary slightly depending on your microwave’s power. After 1 minute, check the consistency and microwave in additional 30-second intervals until it reaches your desired texture. Your fluffy and soft steamed egg is ready!
