Today, I’m sharing how to make super simple steamed eggs using your microwave. It’s a quick and easy dish that’s perfect for busy mornings, weeknight dinners, or even as a nutritious snack for kids.
Main Ingredients- 2 large eggs
Seasoning & Others- 1 pinch salt (approx. 1/4 tsp)
- 1/3 cup water (approx. 60ml)
- A little finely chopped green onion
- 1 pinch salt (approx. 1/4 tsp)
- 1/3 cup water (approx. 60ml)

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s make nutritious and soft steamed eggs in the microwave! This recipe is so easy that even beginners or those living alone can successfully make it.
Step 2
First, crack 2 large eggs into a bowl. Next, add 1/3 cup (about 60ml) of water. If you don’t have a measuring cup, about one-third of a standard paper cup will do. Add a pinch of salt to season. Whisk the eggs and water together gently with a fork or whisk until just combined. Avoid over-whisking, as this can make the steamed eggs less tender. Finally, sprinkle some finely chopped green onions on top for garnish. (Note: The photo missed showing the water being added, but be sure to add water when you mix the eggs!)
Step 3
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. This prevents the steamed eggs from drying out or splattering in the microwave. Once covered, microwave on high power for about 3 minutes. The exact cooking time may vary depending on your microwave’s wattage and the size of the bowl. It’s a good idea to check at around 2 minutes and 30 seconds and adjust the time as needed. The steamed eggs are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 4
Voila! Your delicious and fluffy microwave steamed eggs are ready in no time. They taste best served warm. Enjoy this comforting dish as a side for your rice or a healthy snack for your little ones!
