Recipe

Slice cabbage thinly, then cut into pieces about 2cm long for easier eating.
Rinse the sliced cabbage under water two or three times, then drain thoroughly using a colander.
In a clay pot or pot, crack 3 eggs and add 1 tablespoon of shrimp paste liquid along with a few shrimp pieces.
Add 1 tablespoon of mirin to reduce the eggy smell and stir well until the egg whites are fully broken down.
Pour in half a cup of water to achieve a soft texture, mix well, then add the drained cabbage so it is fully submerged in the egg mixture.
Turn the heat to medium and stir gently as the egg mixture begins to clump together, preventing it from sticking to the bottom.
When the mixture becomes firm throughout, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Steam for about 3 minutes to ensure even cooking through.

Cut cabbage into 2cm pieces, rinse, and remove excess water.
In a clay pot, mix eggs, shrimp paste, mirin, and water to make the egg mixture, then add the cabbage.
Cook over medium heat while stirring, then once firm, cover and steam on low heat for 3 minutes.

Cooking tips

To minimize cleanup during dieting, crack the eggs directly into the cooking pot and mix without preparing the egg mixture separately.
Use mostly the shrimp paste liquid for seasoning to avoid clumping and ensure even flavor distribution for a balanced taste.
When using a microwave, cover with a lid or plastic wrap and cook for 6 to 7 minutes—no need to adjust heat for a hassle-free result.
