Fluffy, juicy pork patty topped with a rich salted egg yolk. Steam for a tender result. Tip: Slapping the meat makes it springy!
1Prepare the Meat
Use 450g of fresh minced pork with some fat. Tip: This keeps the patty tender and juicy after steaming.
2Add Seasonings
Add salt, chicken powder, sugar, and cornstarch to the pork. Mix well.
3Use Egg White
Add one chicken egg white and mix. Tip: Egg white adds moisture and makes the patty smooth, not salty.
4Mix and Slap
Mix the meat thoroughly, then slap it down into the bowl a few times. Tip: This makes the texture springy.
5Grease the Plate
Spread a little oil all over the plate. Tip: This prevents the meat patty from sticking after steaming.
6Shape the Patty
Flatten the meat on the plate to 1cm thick. Press a hole in the center and add the salted egg yolk.
7Steam the Patty
Steam over high heat for 10-12 mins. No electric steamer? Use a wok with boiling water; time from when water boils. Tip: Do not open the lid.
8Add Final Touches
After steaming, garnish with chopped spring onions, hot oil, and light soy sauce. Serve hot.
