  • About

An interesting way to serve boiled eggs, perhaps as part of a series of dishes that complement each other — a great way of providing protein content for a vegetable-based diet. You can use duck eggs to make it a richer dish, or quail eggs as an alternative. Cooking times will vary according to the size of the eggs.

Ingredients

  • 6 large (61 g) eggs
  • 25 g belacan (Malaysian shrimp paste)

Method

  1. Put eggs into a saucepan of cold water and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Simmer for 5-6 minutes. Remove from heat and plunge into cold water. Peel carefully.
  2. Dry-roast belacan over gentle heat until fragrant.
  3. Heat oil in a frying pan and sauté shallots and lemongrass until softened.
  4. Stir in belacan, spice paste, chilli jam and palm
