How to... Braised Eggs!


"If you got the chance to sample Grandma's Braised Eggs, you must. It tastes different, very good. The steps of Granny's cooking are often tedious, so i wouldn't wish to do..." Mom said. 

Recent years, Grandma has been weaken down by Stroke; getting a taste of her specified cooking would be one in a million chance... i lamented.

Today, I'm blessed with just what i hope for ;)
And asked Grandma for a revelation of her recipe! She was obviously in good spirit and filled me with all details and kitchen tips; i hope to share for the good of us all. 

STEPS:
1. After cooking the Eggs in hot water, cool the Eggs in cold tap water for 1 hour before peeling off its shell. The cooling process guaranteed ease of removing the egg shells.
2. In a dry pot, add Dark Soy Sauce to the Eggs, stirring it very often for 4 hours.
3. The eggs will gradually get coated in nice brown.

You could then eat the eggs directly - which we love to. Just like that! The remaining Soy Sauce can be use to prepare Braised Pork Knuckles, Braised Meat or Braised Bean Curd, with a choice of adding the Braised Eggs to it for a wholesome meal.

This is a surprisingly easy and good recipe; i'm withholding it from Mom for the time being ;)
