Steamed crabby toufu with eggs

It's always nice to have simple dishes made a little "complicated", just for the sake of "new dish exploration".  Hahaha, turned out the kids and husband like this dish. And the happy thing is that this dish is nutritional and easy on the pocket!

Ingredients:

- egg toufu

- 3 pcs Kanimi crab sticks (chopped)

- 1 egg

- chopped spring onions

- sauce (2 tbsp light soy sauce, 1/2 tbsp sesame oil, 2 tbsp water)

Steps:

1. Cut egg toufu into slices.  Each about 1cm thick. Lay them on a plate (to be sent to the steamer later)

2. Chop the kanimi crabsticks into very small cubes.   Pinch some crabsticks and place on the surface of every toufu. 

3. Heat up the steamer. While water is being boiled, prepare the egg mixture. 

4. Use the 1 whole egg white and half an egg yolk, add 1.5 egg shell of water and mix well. 

5. Pour the mixture into a sieve, into another bowl. This is to rid the mucusy part of the egg white. Once done, pour the egg mixture onto the plate that contains the toufu. Take care not to spill onto the toufu. The egg mixture should cover the base of the plate. 

6. Add in any leftover crabsticks (finely minced them) and chopped spring onions into the mix.  Place the plate into the steamer and steam for 8mins. 

7. After 8 mins, remove the lid and using a teaspoon, drench the side and the top of the toufu. 

8. You are ready to serve this delightful dish. :)

You can also replace the Kani with other ingredients like minced pork/chicken (take care to ensure thorough cooking), or chopped prawns, or perhaps come chopped carrots, or broccoli bits?  The possibilities are endless. Have fun with your food exploration!
