3 garlic clove
1 red peppers
XO sauce
2 teaspoons soy sauce

Directions

Tips:

No need to add salt because both the soy sauce and XO sauce are salty and favored. Use XO sauce to replace soy sauce if you desire.

Do not steam abalone over 15 minutes. You can steam for 8-10 minutes, then turn off the heat and use remaining heat to steam abalone cooked.

The spring onion can remove abalone’s fishy taste and add more favor. After steaming, discard the spring onion.
