The real reason we moved back to Singapore

If you ask my mother, she'll tell you this is the most frequently requested dish within the family (well from me at least).

I can finish this entire plate all by myself.
It's not just any steamed eggs. My mother adds century eggs & salted eggs too, using of course the ubiquitous stainless steel dish.

Don't tell my mum but that's why we moved back to Singapore so that I can have this anytime I want.

Mmmmmm this is also one of my fave dishes... Never thought of adding century egg to it.

I like a little mince meat in it too.

OMG! I was just reading my recipe book that day that said to add century egg & salted egg to the steamed egg (with minced meat too) and I was thinking "How come I have not eaten this kinda steamed egg before?" (It was supposed to be a "Malaysian Hawker Fare cookbook" - I guess I didn't go out to the hawkers as much as I thought I have been!)... and then your post came up. HOW COINCIDENTAL!

Ivana - I'm sure you can find century eggs @ Tang Freres. Try this. It's better than with minced meat

Jim - Come over & I'll make sure my mum cooks this for you

Tsulin - The hawkers here do it too but it's usually with minced pork
