Shrimp Steamed Egg & Silken Tofu

Ingredients

• Eggs (1 part egg to 1 part water by volume)
• Water (equal to the egg)
• Silken tofu
• Deveined shrimp
• Green onions, sliced

Sauce

• Cooking oil
• Sesame oil
• Soy sauce
• Rice vinegar
• Sugar

Directions

• Beat together one part egg and one part water until smooth.
• Slice the silken tofu and arrange it in a baking dish. Lay the deveined shrimp on top.
• Strain the beaten egg over the tofu and shrimp to remove froth and bubbles, so the custard sets smooth.
• Steam for 8 to 10 minutes, until the egg is set and custardy.
• In a separate pan, heat the cooking oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sugar until it sizzles. Adjust to taste (she likes it a little on the sweet side).
• Pour the hot sauce over the steamed egg, top with green onions, and serve with rice.
