Mamarazzi's Asam Eggs

Mamarazzi was getting bored of cooking the same old  things over and over again. Hence the other day she decided to cook one of her favourite dish. Unfortunately, this is not something that Papa and me liked. That's why she seldom cook it. It's Asam Eggs

The ingredient are dried shrimps, belacan (shrimp paste) and Fresh Chili. Unfortunately she didn't have fresh chili at home so she substituted it with dried chili.

In the old days, the ingredients would be pound in this mortar. 

But now, its much easier with a Blender. However, some folks would insist that ingredient pounded in mortar tasted better.

To make asam eggs, of course must have Asam juice. She took about a tablespoon of asam paste and "melted" it in hot water.

 Some fresh Ladies Fingers

Diced an onion. Don't need much of onion. Just need some to fry it in oil for the aroma.

Some eggs, pepper and salt. Beaten. Usually people would make Asam Eggs out of Hard Boil Eggs but Mamarazzi doesn't like Hard Boiled Eggs so she just fry them.

The method...well....fry the eggs. Put aside. Then fry some of the onions in the Wok till the aroma arise.  Add in the Chili paste and fry a bit. Followed by the Ladies Fingers.

Last  pour in the Asam Water after filtered away the asam seed. Dump the fried eggs into the Wok. Add a bit of sugar according to individual taste.

When the Ladies Fingers are cooked. Then it's time to serve.

Hmmm...the coloring not that nice as compared to using fresh Chili. But beggars can't be chooser, right? 

 As for me, Mamarazzi fried Eggs with the dice onion. 

Goes well, with my rice and soup. Yum yum yummy....
