Chinese Steamed Eggs – 20 Minutes ONLY!

Chinese Steamed Eggs

Here is a 20-minute, super easy, healthy, and affordable dinner!

Chinese Steamed Eggs  – a childhood dish that requires only two simple ingredients, eggs, and water.

A simple yet delicious savory sauce is drizzled all over the perfectly steamed velvety eggs.

Chinese Steamed Eggs are delicate, healthy, delicious, and incredibly easy to make.

Give Chinese Steamed Eggs a try, and I promise it will also be your household favorite dish as well!

Oh, and it’s vegetarian-friendly too!

Chinese Steamed Eggs

Even though Chinese Steamed Eggs is a simple dish, it is hard to perfect.

It requires a perfect ratio of water and eggs to get that velvety soft texture. Don’t worry! I am here to share all of my mom’s secrets to guarantee the perfect Chinese Steamed Eggs every single time!

A steamer is highly recommended. The two brands I would recommend are SUPOR steamer and Concord Steamer.

Make sure to set two chopsticks on edge. That way, air can flow in and cook the egg evenly.

If the Steamer is shut tight, this can cause the egg to overcook, and the texture will be more similar to quiche versus a silky egg custard.

strain the egg

I like to strain my eggs to ensure no lumps and my Chinese Steamed Eggs come out extra silky and soft.

Make sure to also strain any excess bubbles on the top if you are a smooth surface.

I use a simple mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, and sugar for the sauce.

However, you can also add seafood, meat, shiitake mushroom, or any other toppings for your choice.

Korean Steamed Eggs

If you don’t have a steamer, I recommend making my Korean Steamed Eggs recipe instead.

One of the EASIEST ways to enjoy fluffy and tasty eggs delicious every single time is to make Korean Steamed Eggs – Gyeran Jjim.

Korean Steamed Eggs is a popular side dish that takes less than 15 minutes to make and is super affordable. Fluffy, light, and filled with umami flavors! 

Chinese Steamed Eggs

Ingredients 

  • 5 Eggs 
  • 2 cups of Dashi, Vegetable, or Chicken stock 
  • 1.5 tbsp of Soy Sauce 
  • 1 tbsp of Sesame Oil
  • 0.5 tbsp of Sugar 
  • Green Onion 
  1. Prepare the steamer by adding water at the bottom and turning the heat to medium-high heat. Once the water is simmering, the steamer is ready. 
  2. Whisk eggs and warm stock together. Whisk until everything thoroughly combined. 
  3. Strain the egg and remove any bubbles on top 
  1. Place egg in the steamer for 15 minutes. Before closing the lid on the steamer, add two chopsticks on each side of the steamer; that way, air can flow in and cook the Steamed eggs evenly. 
  2. Mix soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil together. Whisk until sugar is fully dissolved 
  3. Place a spoon lightly on top of the egg; if it doesn’t sink, that means the egg is cooked.
  4. Drizzle the sauce all over the egg and garnish it with green onion. Pair with rice or other vegetables! ENJOY!

About Me
Hi! I am Tiffy and I am a HUGE foodie. I love to cook, I love to eat, and I love sharing what I love with the world.
I was born in Taiwan, a country with some of the best street food in the world. When I think back to my childhood, I remember all the fantastic restaurants my dad brought me to when I was young. You see, my family is also huge foodies; we use to wander around night markets every weekend, skip the last period in class to try out new restaurants, and every summer, we would travel around Taiwan exploring all the new “must try” dishes around the country.
