Chawan Mushi, the Japanese steamed custard in a cup is one of my favourite side dishes whenever it comes to Japanese cuisine. It is something similar to Chinese steamed egg but with different ingredients hidden at the bottom of the cup
All you need are just some simple ingredients and ...
*Poooooffff*
You can have soft silky smooth Chawan Mushi at home too!
Instead of dashi, I used unsweetened soya milk to create a rich, creamy and melt-in-mouth-type Chawan Mushi
***
Soya Chawan Mushi (makes 2)
1 egg
250 ml of unsweetened soya milk
1 teaspoonful of mirin
1/8 teaspoonful of salt (adjust based on your preferences)
Little bit of soy sauce
Prawn
Japanese bunashimeiji mushroom
Steps:
Lightly beat the egg and add in soya milk, mirin, salt and soy sauce.
Mix the ingredients lightly.
Sieve the egg-liquid mixture.
Place the prawn and button mushroom into the bowl.
Pour the egg-liquid mixture into the bowl.
Steam it for a minute at high heat and then 7 minutes at low heat.
Easy, isn't it?! :)
Try it out today!

Nice recipe, I'll try it out when I have the chance! =) Haha, or if I'm lazy, I'll pass the recipe to my mum. Lol! Looks so silky!
a few question to ask..
hope it wont sound stupid..
1. steam the egg after the water boil or??
2. if i use the chawan mushi cup, should i cover the lid?
3. the mushroom and the prawn is placed at the bottom of the cup, right? when cooked, it will come to surface??
傻鱼,
it's not stupid, here we are to share and exchange :)
yes, you have to wait till your water boil first before steaming.
as for the lid, i am not really sure if there is any difference when u cover it. i didn't cover it because i am checking whether it is done.
the mushroom and the prawn is placed at the bottom of the cup, when the chawan mushi is cooked, the mushroom may float on the surface.
hope this help :)
aiwei..
thanks for the advice..
hopefully i can make it!!
will come kacau again when tak jadi..
傻鱼,
no problem, feel free to drop me a message here :)
hehe, sure can make it nicely one ^^
