Soft and Delicious Microwave Steamed Eggs
Easiest Ever! How to Make Fluffy and Tasty Steamed Eggs in the Microwave (Super Simple Recipe)
When I was wondering what to eat alone, I suddenly craved steamed eggs and asked my mom for her recipe. I made a slight modification to her method to create this version, which is even easier and quicker thanks to the microwave. It’s perfect for a solo meal or as a side dish!
Ingredients- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 tsp soy sauce
- 100ml milk
- 50ml water
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, crack 2 large eggs into a bowl. Use a whisk or chopsticks to beat the eggs until well combined and the stringy part of the egg white is broken. Avoid whisking too vigorously to prevent excessive foam.
Step 2
Once the eggs are well beaten, add 1.5 teaspoons of soy sauce and mix thoroughly. This will provide the basic seasoning.
Step 3
Now, add 100ml of milk (approximately 5 tablespoons) for a richer flavor and mix gently. The milk will make the steamed eggs exceptionally moist and tender.
Step 4
Finally, add 50ml of water to adjust the consistency and mix everything together well. Your base for the steamed eggs is now ready.
Step 5
Pour the prepared egg mixture into a microwave-safe container (such as a steaming dish or bowl). It’s safest to fill the container only about two-thirds full to prevent overflow during cooking.
Step 6
Place the container in the microwave and cook for about 4 minutes and 30 seconds. Cooking times can vary slightly depending on your microwave’s power, so it’s a good idea to check on it periodically and adjust the time as needed.
Step 7
Carefully remove the steamed eggs from the microwave once cooking is complete. Insert a chopstick or skewer; if it comes out clean, the eggs are done. If they are still a bit undercooked, microwave them in additional 30-second to 1-minute increments. Enjoy your perfectly fluffy and tender steamed eggs!
