Steamed Egg Custard

Eggs are very nourishing. They contain one of the best quality source of protein as well as almost all the essential vitamins and minerals that we need.

I normally buy Omega-3 eggs as they contain the Omega-3 fatty acids which are important for overall good health and supposedly help prevent cardiovascular disease.

Many a time when I run out of food in the fridge, I'll just whip up a simple dish with just eggs. My children love this and wish that mum would always cook simple egg custard which is so easily digested, no chewing required.

Steamed Egg Custard


4 eggs
400 ml water
1/2 tsp salt
pepper, sesame oil
spring onions, chopped

  1. Break eggs into a bowl.
  2. Add pepper and salt and beat with a fork.
  3. Add lukewarm water and stir evenly.
  4. Transfer to serving plate and onto the steaming tray and cook with the rice in the rice cooker.(Otherwise, steam over boiling water at low heat for about 15 minutes)
  5. Garnish with sesame oil and chopped spring onions.
  6. Serve the firm custard hot with rice.
