Ingredients
- 250g tofu
- about 50g eggs
- 80g water
- 9 shrimps
- 1 chives
- 1 tablespoon seasoned soy sauce for seafood
- 1g salt
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Directions
Tip:
- 1 egg (about 50g) +250g tofu is the best proportion. If add more tofu, you should add more eggs as well. The purpose is to prevent excess water after steaming.
- Don’t cut the tofu into too large chunks, so that it can release water evenly when steamed.
- If you want to make the food as the recipe picture, simply put the tofu in the middle of the plate, and then pour the egg mixture.
