Servings: 2 pax

Ingredients
200gr fresh shrimp
4 eggs
4 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon seasoning powder
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon sugar
Chopped scallions (for garnish)
A few fresh vegetables and tomatoes (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the ingredients
Rinse the shrimp, peel, devein, and either cut into small pieces or leave whole depending on your preference. To reduce any fishy smell, blanch the shrimp in boiling water for 2 - 3 minutes, then rinse under cold water.
Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk with a little seasoning powder.
Chop the scallions to use as garnish after cooking.
Steam the egg custard
Set up a steamer and pour the egg mixture together with the shrimp into a heatproof bowl. Steam gently for about 10 - 15 minutes until the egg sets into a soft, smooth custard.
Make the sauce
In a small bowl, mix together 4 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, and a pinch of ground pepper.
Once the egg custard is cooked, sprinkle with chopped scallions and drizzle the sauce over the top for color and flavor. Garnish with fresh greens and tomato slices for a more appetizing presentation.
Tips for serving
Best enjoyed with brown rice or white rice.
