Eggs are a favourite in my house, and I suppose that could be same in almost every household, especially with kids. Eggs makes a super quick meal, when you are rushing for time, or simply just want a simple and easy meal, eggs never fails to deliver!
For one of the weeknight dinner, I made this egg dish because I have some leftover stewed meat from the previous day, and wanted to have something simple to go with rice along with the leftover stewed meat and a stir-fry green veggie. This egg dish is just the one!
A simple and delicious plate of stir-fried three types of eggs!
Century eggs and salted eggs. Do you like century eggs? In my house, we love both century eggs and salted eggs.
This recipe uses century eggs, salted eggs and the usual chicken eggs. The salted eggs are cooked till hard boiled and both the salted and century eggs are chopped to pieces. Recipe uses only the egg yolks from the salted eggs, but I have used the whites as well. The ones I bought are not really salty and they are perfect. The chicken eggs are beaten lightly, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper with a dash of sesame oil. Mix the chopped eggs and some sectioned spring onions into the egg mixture and stir gently to combine. The recipe calls for some parsley as well, since I do not have any, I just used a large bunch of spring onions. Heat some oil in a wok, pour the egg mixture into the hot oil and stir gently until the eggs are cooked. I like mine a little brown, so I have stir-fried longer so that the eggs are golden and fragrant. Dish up and serve.
For homemade Salted Eggs, you may refer to my post here.
Yummy! Perfect with rice or even with congee.

ReplyDeleteOh Joyce, how I do love eggs. I would love to try both century eggs and salted eggs but I'm afraid my doctor would probably beat me with a wet noodle, lol...Sounds delicious though, have a little extra for me:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing...
This is an egg lover's dream--three types! My favorite part is how fast it can be made. Thank you for linking, Joyce!
ReplyDeleteThe stir fry looks so yummy and tasty ... it's a must try next week . :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious! I adore eggs, but I have never had salted eggs before. I want to try them now! Thank you for sharing such a delicious stir-fry!
ReplyDeleteOh My! This looks certainly yummy and salivating.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious , Joyce ! I've tried steamed version of this :D
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce, I think I like this stir fry more than the usual steamed version. More fragrant with lots of spring onions and sesame oil. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI love eggs as well. Should give it a try for the stir fry version instead of steam version that I use to cook. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce, I love century eggs, your version sound interesting! Thumbs up!
ReplyDeleteInteresting dish using all 3 types of eggs and I love it! Great to go with rice!
ReplyDeleteJoyce,
ReplyDeleteHow I love this eggs combination. Droolingggg.... By the way, try to cut down on commercial century eggs. If possible, learn to make it yourself. I happen to read an article on the commercial century eggs which contain a kind of chemical and preservative that is quite hazardous to our health if consume too much. Can't remember the name.
Wow, this is a wonderful dish. love it.
ReplyDeleteLooks interesting and delicious!
ReplyDeleteHi Joyce, I like all these 3 kinds of eggs. I made a steamed version last week too. Thanks for linking to LTU! :) Have an egg-cellent weekend.
ReplyDeleteI've eaten 3 types of eggs steamed but yet to hear of fried 3 types of eggs. Mmm... something to think about. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your awesome recipe with Full Plate Thursday. Hope you are having a great weekend and come back soon!

ReplyDeleteI love salted egg & spotted some at the asian store recently . But I'm not keen of century egg though & I don think I can find it over here. Have to do some reseach first hah. :D
ReplyDeleteYums, this is the first time I 've seen this recipe. I never knew you could stir fry them in this combination. They look good. This recipe is going to my to-cook list.
