Level:Intermediate
Yield:4 servings
INGREDIENTS


8 large eggs
2 cups/480 milliliters chicken stock
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt or sea salt
8 small shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 scallion, thinly sliced on an angle
Toasted sesame oil, for drizzling
Roasted sesame seeds, for sprinkling
DIRECTIONS

Special equipment: four 10-ounce heatproof bowls or ramekins

Bring a pot of water to a boil.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, chicken stock, fish sauce and salt. Pour the mixture into four 10-ounce heatproof bowls or ramekins. Arrange the bowls in a large, wide pot with a lid.

Add enough boiling water to the pot to reach two-thirds of the way up the sides of the bowls. Bring the water to a gentle simmer, cover the pot, and steam until the custards are slightly wobbly in the center, 6 to 7 minutes.

Divide the shrimp and scallions among the bowls, cover, and steam until the shrimp are cooked through and the custards are set, about 3 minutes more.

Top the custards with a drizzle
 of sesame oil and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve warm.
