Ingredients
- 2 large egg
- 178 ml Chicken broth stock (or double the volume of eggs)
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds black
Instructions
- In a large bowl, add eggs and broth. Beat with a whisk until smooth.
- Optional steps: Pour egg mixture through a strainer and into another bowl. If there are any bubbles on the surface, deflate them with a spoon. (These steps are not necessary if you're in a hurry, but they make for a smoother result).
- Wrap foil tightly over your bowl.
- Add 1 cup of water to your Instant Pot. Place bowl on top of trivet in Instant Pot.
- Seal Instant Pot. Set to low pressure and cook for 6 minutes. Allow Instant Pot to do a natural release.
- Once the release is finished, remove lid. Remove foil from bowl.
- Drizzle egg with sesame oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Notes
Variations:
You can use water or milk/cream instead of broth and add other seasonings that you like. Green onions on top is delicious. Sometimes I add bacon to the egg mixture (yum).
If you don't have an Instant Pot, place the bowl in a pot (no need to cover the bowl with tinfoil), and fill the pot with water so that it comes half way up the sides of the bowl. Cover with a glass lid so you can keep an eye on it. Cook over low-medium heat at a gentle simmer for about 12-15 minutes, until just set but still jiggly.
