3 Eggs Custard


As a child I grew up eating steamed eggs. Granny used to have a few variations of this.
We could have minced pork in it, chopped chives and of course, salted eggs and century eggs too.
The custard is really smooth and just slides down your throat!

The salted eggs and century eggs give the dish texture and flavour

recipe:
2  duck century eggs, hard boiled
2 salted duck eggs, hard boiled
5 chicken eggs
Soy sauce, to serve

Prepare the steamer
Peel the salted eggs and century eggs.
Roughly chop them, leaving small and big chunks
Place all this in a round heatproff dish 
Beat the chicken eggs in a big measuring cup
Pour eggs into a big bowl
Now, measure twice the amount water  to eggs
The idea is to get 1 part eggs to 2 parts water
Add the water to the eggs
 Pour into the dish, over the chopped eggs
Steam under high heat for 20 minutes.
Serve with soy sauce.
