- Fried Boiled Eggs! A classic throughout Asia - in this video we'll show you how to fry them up in the Chinese style, along with two options of how to serve them up with some saucy goodness: Red Braised Tiger Skin Eggs, and Sichuan Homestyle-Flavor Tiger Skin Eggs.
Recipe is also over here on /r/CasualChina if you prefer:
/ recipe_tiger_skin_eggs...
HOW (WE) BOIL & PREP EGGS
1. Place six eggs in cool water, then over a high flame bring everything up to a boil. Swap the flame to medium high so that it's not quite as aggressive, then boil for 6.5 minutes.
2. Remove, place in a bowl of cold water. No need for ice bath - place under running water, swap the water a couple times til it's no longer hot.
3. Peel & thoroughly dry the eggs.
5. Make shallow cuts down the egg lengthwise.
HOW TO FRY THE EGGS
Round bottomed woks have the advantage of using less oil than a saucepan, but feel free to figure out what works in your kitchen - just do not use stainless steel for this.
* For a wok: first longyau and add in 3-4 tbsp of oil. Medium high flame, once it's hot enough where bubbles can form around a pair of chopsticks (150-160C), add in the eggs. Fry for 90 seconds on one side, 90 seconds on the other, then twist them around to get any white spots that were missed (~2 minutes more).
* For a non-stick saucepan: add in ~1 inch of oil. Medium high flame, once it's hot enough to bubble (150-160C), add in the eggs. Fry for two minutes on each side.
Note that our saucepan we used in the video is very small, 7cm (~6.5 inches).
RED BRAISED TIGER SKIN EGGS, INGREDIENTS
So we had ambitions to make this first recipe here 'western supermarket friendly', which for a homestyle Chinese red braise you can basically do... the peppercorns and the dark soy can be skipped in a pinch, though both would obviously be recommended. The Shaoxing wine can also be skipped, or subbed with sherry, sake, or bourbon.
* Fried boiled eggs, 6
* Aromatics: 1/2 inch ginger, 1 large clove garlic
* Spices: 1/8 cinnamon/cassia stick (桂皮), 1 star anise (八角), 1 dried bay leaf (香叶), 1 whole clove (丁香), 1/4 tsp Sichuan peppercorns (花椒)
* Liaojiu, a.k.a. Shaoxing wine (料酒/绍酒). Or your sub of choice
* Water, 1 cup
* Light soy sauce (生抽), 2 tbsp
* Dark soy sauce (老抽), 1/2 tsp
* Seasoning: 2 tsp sugar, 1/4 tsp salt
* Slurry of 2 tsp cornstarch (生粉) mixed with equal amount of water
* To finish: 1/8 tsp MSG (味精), 1 tsp toasted sesame oil (麻油), bit of chopped scallion
PROCESS, RED BRAISED TIGER SKIN EGGS
1. Small pot, medium flame, swirl in ~1tbsp of oil and fry the ginger & garlic til fragrant, ~30 seconds.
2. Add the spices, fry ~15 seconds. Add in the eggs, then swirl in the wine. Quick mix.
3. Add in the water, soy sauces, and seasoning. Bring to a boil, swap the flame down to medium. Keep at a light boil, uncovered.
4. Flip the eggs a few times through the cooking process. Let it cook for ~12 minutes, or til the liquid's reduced by about one third.
5. Add the MSG and the slurry. Let it thicken, ~30 seconds.
6. Heat off, drizzle in the sesame oil & add the scallions.
INGREDIENTS, HOMESTYLE TIGER SKIN EGGS
* Fried boiled eggs, 6
* Aromatics: 1 inch ginger, 2 cloves garlic. Cut into slices.
* Chili bean paste, Pixian Doubanjiang (郫县豆瓣酱), 1 tbsp. www.amazon.com/Cheng-Sichuan-...
* Liaojiu, a.k.a. Shaoxing wine (料酒/绍酒), 1 tbsp
* Water, 1/2 cup
* Seasoning: 1/2 tbsp light soy sauce (生抽), 1/2 tsp sugar, 1/8 tsp salt
* Green garlic (蒜苗) or scallion, 1 sprig
* Red & green mild chilis, 1/2 each (or bell peppers). Cut into diamonds.
* Slurry of 1/2 tsp cornstarch with a bit of water
* To finish: 1/8 tsp MSG (味精), 1/8 white pepper (白胡椒粉), 1 tsp toasted sesame oil (麻油)
PROCESS, HOMESTYLE TIGER SKIN EGGS
1. Longyau with ~1.5 tbsp of oil, and over a low flame fry the Pixiang Doubanjiang. ~3 minutes, until it stains the oil.
2. Swap the flame to medium high. Add the aromatics, fry for ~30 seconds, swirl in the wine.
3. Add the eggs. Mix to coat, then add the water and the seasoning. Boil it all together over a high flame.
4. Once the liquid's reduced by 1/2, add the green garlic and the chilis. Mix, then add the pepper and the MSG, mix again.
5. Thicken with the slurry, heat off, drizzle in the sesame oil.

Hey guys, a few notes:
1. Over on the Patreon, someone made the very good point that it seemed to be a bit of a tease going through this whole song and dance discussing yolk texture and not actually... showing the inside of a Tiger Skin egg. Definitely an oversight on my part. Here's what it looks like - though again, I know it ain't exactly Instagram-worthy: i.imgur.com/ayFTrBd.jpg
2. In my opinion though, the way to eat Tiger Skin Eggs is to plop the whole thing in your mouth. I uh... have a big mouth though (in all the senses of the word), so another cool approach is to do the same thing with quail eggs.
3. Do not use a stick (stainless steel) saucepan for this. I know I only briefly said "... in a non-stick saucepan ..." in the video, when perhaps I should've been more emphatic. Use non-stick, cast iron, or carbon steel. Stainless steel will give you a mess. Made the mistake before myself!
4. Oh, also... peel your eggs. I drastically shortening our 'egg boiling' discussion because I figured that y'all probably knew how to boil an egg, but I know that I didn't provide a visual at least for the peeling, which was another oversight. Sorry about that.
5. If you're looking to get creative with your eggs, cooking/simmering them for ~4-15 minutes seems about right in my personal experience. Shorter than that, and the fried skin starts to be a touch on the 'tough' side; longer, and the egg begins to get slightly overcooked.
6. Regarding popping - yes, these pop a bit. It's not the scariest thing ever (deep frying blanched chicken feet is the scariest thing lol), but it's a variable to know going into it. Steph likes using a lid as a 'shield' when frying these, which can be a nice approach.
7. We did try to make a 'jammy' version of this using 5-6 minute eggs. The end result? The eggs sagged and leaked when frying, and even the still-intact ones didn't really seem to have any superior of a texture to our taste buds. Someone over on the Patreon popped the eggs in the freezer for 15 minutes and (IIRC) did a 7 minute egg from a hot start (with an ice bath after), to some success - though it was only one egg. If jamminess is non-negotiable for you though, that's one route you could potentially go :)
Did someone legit ask if it was peeled?
Question on #4: is that 4-15? Seems like a wider range then you meant. 4-5 maybe?
@@adedow1333 Haha nah that's the range that I meant :) I based it off the recipes we did here, where in the Sichuan homestyle recipe we cooked it for about ~4 minutes more in all, which felt like a pretty good low end. The red-braised ones (together with my messing around with them in a chili) were 10-15 minutes, and came out great.
There was one time during testing where I was playing around with leftovers, tossed them in a braise for 45 minutes and - while fine - they felt a little on the overcooked side to me.
@@ChineseCookingDemystified Great recipe. I was expecting you to lightly dust the eggs with corn starch, and deep fry them in deeper oil.
I presumed peeled, but that was very unclear in the video. :-)

Same here.
I despise runny yolks in my boiled eggs. It always feels like slurping snot.
I didn't even know you _could_ have a runny yolk in a boiled egg. This trend of "jammy" boiled eggs is news to me.

In Brazil there is a very popular recipe for boiled eggs. In which it is wrapped in seasoned ground meat, which is also wrapped in a potato-based dough, being fried until golden.
That's sounds delicious
I'm Brazilian as well, but have never heard of such a thing... The closest thing I can think of is Pastel, what's the name of this recipe?
That sounds a LOT like "Scotch Eggs" which are hard boiled eggs wrapped in ground sausage and rolled in bread crumbs and fried until golden. They are usually served with mustard.
@@astra8815 tem mts estados eu n duvido nada de que algum tenha essa receita
Scotch eggs bro 🤘
Eggs are probably my favorite food, they're just so versatile. These look absolutely incredible - especially the Sichuan style. I'm definitely going to have to try this some day.
Can’t really go wrong with eggs. They’re a global staple
💯. Perfect for mealtime or snacks.
when i was a kid i wanted to open a egg restaurant where you can eat all different kind of egg dishes. I was amazed with eggs since it was the first thing i could cook myself and you could make so many things and make it amazing by adding a few ingridients like leech for example.
I'm still just sitting here amazed I never even slightly considered what would happen if you fried a boiled egg...
Hmm, now I have the question - what happens when you boil a fried egg?
You waste time while being hungry. Frying boiled egg sound stupid as well.

I'll be going to the Asian market tomorrow and will be doing this recipe with very fresh duck eggs. I'll have them with a chewy short-grain Japanese rice. Yeah, Baby, that's what I am talking about! Thanks for the recipe. One other thing. I use a dipping sauce of two parts Golden Mountain Seasoning sauce to one part water, then I do the Cambodian technique of adding thin slices garlic with thin sliced Thai dragon chilies. As you work your way through the rice and eggs, drizzle a scant amount of the blend over what you're going to eat next.
I was halfway through the vid and realized I have hard boiled eggs on the counter. Got up and made one of these. I don't have the stuff to make the sauces but I have some hoisin sauce. I fried one egg up and dipped it. I LIKE IT! Yummy
I would have never guessed that the eggs develop that texture on their own just when frying. Could have sworn they must have been covered in some kind of coating or breading.
These all look delicious, thanks for introducing me to this!
Yeah! The texture of the skin ends up similar to that of deep fried tofu. I.e. it's a little hard compared to a starch coating, but is *fantastic* for absorbing other flavors.
@@ChineseCookingDemystified When you say "skin" I assume that's the egg white (albumen) and not one of the membrane layers? I'd never guess that the white would fry up like that 😮🤯
@@dgwdgw look out for the albumen! It’s out now.
Its basically a fried egg or omelette. If you oveefry it the texture becomes like a hard omelette. Its quite delicate to balance the texture to be frank. The sauce does a lot of weightlifting therefore
Well its same color as chicken fried in flour + eggs + bread crumbs.
I am from India. My granny was a super amazing cook and she grew up in the Myanmar-china border in the world war 2 era. She used to cook Indian-Chinese style fried eggs in sweet and sour sauce almost every week! It was my favourite food to eat growing up!
Indian-Chinese cooking sounds amazing. I had some of that in my time in Singapore, but not nearly enough.
probably she does know how to make it without MSG... ;))
You're so lucky ❤️
I'll have to try that recipe. I'm an Surinam Indian. In Suriname we braise the boiled fried eggs in masala with some pieces potato and chillies ofcourse. Goes great with parathas or rice. Yummie
Which state are you from ?
Strangely enough, in India, we make egg curry with fried boiled eggs too! Flavour, flavour, flavour! 😘
We also have fried boiled eggs in Trinidad and Tobago, from our East Indian heritage. My favourite is curried eggs and eddoes. I'm excited to try this version.
Growing up the only way I ate eggs was the yolk completely cooked through, it wasn't until about 2 years ago I learned that apparently a lot of people like them runny, it was weird to me.
Same
I grew up learning that runny yolk = salmonella
@@irishkat8451 exactly
SAME
I appreciate your honesty. Me too
“Are they jammy?”
Never ever heard that in my life. We’ve always just called them either soft-boiled if the yolk is still runny, or hard boiled if it isn’t.
Soft boiled=gross
@@xPhantom_404x i respect your opinion
@@Annie-qe2uu soft boiled=gross
Jammy is different than soft boiled
Something like a ramen style marinated egg would be considered jammy
I didn't have all of the ingredients so i used korean bbq sauces, the korean chili pepper, fish sauce and honey...delicious. I also added fried onions, sesame seeds and a touch of toasted sesame oil! chef's kiss!
Even though this is my first video I've watched in this channel, I really loved this video so much, and I'm looking forward to see your other videos^^
(also I was slobbering through the whole video, it looks sooo good)

Those Instagram food photographers can be downright bizarre. Tearing apart bread, cakes, eggs, lobsters, chicken, anything just to see the innards spill out. Sometimes all over their hands and sidewalk. How would a person eat the food in any dignified manner afterwards?
Dignity isn't required to eat
@@renaigh but it is required when eating in front of other people
Instagram is a visual medium. You could hamd them the most delicious sandwhich on earth, and they'd complain because they can't see their pretentious ingredients. Remember the charcoal flavour trend which was sacrificing taste for looks on most items?
@@bleacher3338 that's why I don't eat in front of other people, Meals are a solitary activity.

they cost in totally under 20 bucks in any Chinese food mart
19 ingredients, not counting the eggs
I mean if you're here to find some good recipes maybe go to a Chinese shop and pick up soy sauce at the very least.
💀
If you have a deep fryer and use soft boiled eggs the middle ends up a nice over medium. I tried this while working at a diner and it's so good that I'm considering buying a personal deep fryer.
So, I had this thought the last time that I was shoving a soft boiled egg into my mouth and trying to catch all of the oozey yolk that came out in my hand that maybe not all of my eggs need to be soft boiled.
Thankyou for this recipe, it was delicious! I served this over steamed rice and broke up the yolk into the rice so it wouldn't be such a chalky mouthful.

Cool I'm not the only one
If you freeze it before deep frying, it'll be both fried and have runny yolk. (Shokugeki no soma), I do it a lot and it's great.
How to easily peel soft boiled egg?
@@evelineeveline6106 much easier if you wait for everything to cool, crack the eggs and submerge them in water to separate the membrane from the egg.
@@evelineeveline6106 under cold running water.
Awesome. This came to my mind while watching the video. I saw tiger skin eggs with runny yolks in a restaurant and then figured that they must've used some special trick.
@@evelineeveline6106 The older the egg, the easier to peel
It's about time someone had the courage to speak out and say that runny yolks are overrated. THANK YOU!
Not overrated. Theres just a stupid obsession that the internet has with them. Almost a vile, religious following. If you dont eat them, you get actual hate comments 😂
Over half the people I know dont even like runny eggs.
I’m triggered by them never cutting into the fried egg 💀
Imagine getting triggered by that
Imagine not knowing what sarcasm is. 😢
Living in a foody town and raising chickens, sometimes I feel wierd JUST WANTING MY STUPID EGGS FULLY COOKED!
fully cooked to some people is a runny yolk tho
solid eggs have their place ... runny yolk eggs do to ... there was a time when solid was the way to go because there were no fridges to keep the eggs from spoiling and so hard boiled solid eggs would deal with borderline eggs ... that is where people get the fetish for solid eggs from ... if you were pickling eggs a runny yolk is garbage ... if your adding it to a stew slices of a solid egg and a a few runny eggs are a nice mix .. you get the creamy of the soft yolk and the dry flavour of the hard yolks as well
Ive loathed "jammy" eggs all my life so hearing him start with that sounded so odd to me
I'm a simple man. Just give me the egg however. As long as I don't see red, I'll eat it XD
My mom cooks them till they’re coated green. Personally I think the best is when the yolk is cooked to chewy but not runny
These look fantastic. One of my favorites is still Scotch eggs but these seem like they are much more versatile.
Scotch eggs are life.
Scotch eggs are in a completely different league... their yumminess is quite unrivaled when it comes to eggs.
Yep, all I could think about while watching this was "but Scotch eggs...". Although instead of frying them after wrapping them in sausage, I cook them in the smoker instead.
Scotch eggs are for picnics and walking lunches. Fried boiled eggs are for sitting at table, because sauce

Funny history I had never tried jammy eggs and decided to make this recipe, a couple of eggs were uncooked and fell apart when I was peeling them, not good for the recipe, so i added some salt and ate them as they were and I was really impressed on how they turned out, the final recipe was also amazing thus making me discover two types of eggs for the price of one
Philippine's version of this is called KWEK KWEK. It is coated in bright orange flour batter. Really popular among students.

I will be honest, I have never been interested in Chinese food until now. I really want to try to cook these eggs, thank you for such an informative video.
Personal Taste: I only like jammy eggs when they're a topping on noodles and soups. But I prefer fully cooked eggs on every other situation
I never got that to be honest, as soon as the runny yolk contacts water it just mixes in and you can't break the egg without that happening.

In Indonesia, we called the dish as Telur Balado. It is almost identical recipe but we don’t use the soy but a lot of chili. It is possible that historically the Chinese and Indian merchants brought the recipe to South East Asia back then and then infuse them together. Yeah, fried cooked eggs/Tiger Skin Eggs is one of my favorite dishes.
YES!!! I had telur balado a lot when I visited Bali like 12 years ago and have been trying to recreate it since but there's always something I'm missing. The chili sauce soaked into the fried eggs.... SOOOO good.
@@hanblum Similarly for Sambal Telur. The secret is in the sauce.

Yeah, what a strange reference in an egg frying video lol.
Eggs remind me of spuds, they can be cooked in so many ways and different eggs mean different uses and experiences same as spuds. As long you enjoy it then it's the right way. Prefer a poor man's/Irish stew style rather than large chunks? Or you like soft boiled eggs over hard? Go for it.
Scrambled, fried, omelette, chips, mash, potato bread. So many fun possibilities~
You know the folds in a chef's hat are one for each egg recipe they know
I'm going to try this with vegetables and Thai chili sauce. They look incredible.

Is it crunchy?
@@andynonymous6769 no, but the fried outside is kinda spongey which soaks up all the flavor of the sauce

I’ve never tried it in our Indian egg curry but I’ll have to give it a go next time!
Vietnamese have been doing fried egg in spicy fish sauce. Personally do not prefer the texture of overcooked/fried egg white. So I make my jammy egg and marinade it in a sweet soy sauce marinade for one night. Then warm gently and eat with hot rice and sesame oil with my jammy jammy yolks.
Would you mind sharing your recipe? I would like to try both the Tiger Skin and yours.
What’s your sweet soy sauce marinade pretty please with a jammy egg on top🙏🏻
Mix equal parts soy sauce, water and brown sugar (or whatever sugar you like). 1/2 cup each ingredient per 6-8 eggs. Add whatever herb or aromatics you like such as scallions, cilantro ginger garlic etc etc(except oily stuff save that for serving). You can keep it basic and it is still good. My SO prefers it basic with no aromatics and some chili oil or sate oil to serve with hot rice.
@@Bookfreak19 thank you. Looks like I have some eggs to cook!
@@Bookfreak19 that is very similar to the brine I use to pickle Korean style onions, radish and Chayote squash.
This helped me to stop worrying about my health and just eat. Thank you!
This looks amazing!!
I actually am not a fan of jammy yolks, I've always had hard boiled eggs as my favorite. (for a long time I didn't even know soft boiled eggs existed, funny, I know) I like my yolks well cooked and with next to no runnyness. (runny yolk just makes me feel sick and I just don't like it) I'm still a huge fan of boiled eggs so this looks delicious.
Yes
For hard boiled, I'm the same way, no runniness. But if I do sunny side up, I love runny yolk and cooked white.
@@jessicabellandy5687 only enough I don't like runny at all, no matter the egg type. I like my sunny side up eggs well-cooked with crunchy stuff near the ends lol
@@shinyprisma6085 Same. Runny eggs make me nauseous. I like my eggs fully cooked
@@shinyprisma6085 the crunchy stuff at the edges are the best. i also love it when the eggs are fully cooked and not runny
The soft boiled egg trend makes me really mad, I don't have anything against people who like runny yolks, but a lot of people act like that's the "right way" to cook eggs, and hard yolks are bad and a waste of eggs. I think that's mostly because when you overcook an egg the yolk develops a dark ring(sulphur ring) around it, and also gets pale and tasteless, but you can have a hard boiled egg that doesn't have the sulphur ring and that's still soft and tasty, I dislike runny yolks so i always make hard boiled eggs, i cook them for about 11 minutes and they look beautiful and don't taste or smell like raw egg like runny yolks often do
Same to me cuz it feel kinda weird and taste not right when the egg is slimy inside
Runny yolks is better 🤣it does often smell like raw if you dont know how cook 🤣.lol learn
The secret is fill the pot to your first pinky knuckle put a lid on and steam your eggs for 9 minutes and throw them in an ice bath right after. They’ll come out great every time. I use this for lunch all the time. Egg salad or deviled eggs now this
@@debu9748 runny yolk boiled eggs are the worst 🤣 learn to cook 🤣
@@aternialaffsalot well he likes runny yolks and we don't. Just respect other favourite, man.
We do this technique in Egypt using ghee or clarified butter instead of oil. A crowd pleaser every time.
I couldn't believe that crust is just fried boiled egg white without any coating. It looks so nice and crispy.
Indian egg curry also uses these. Although you don't fry it quite so much. You just saute the eggs lightly with some salt and turmeric until they have some blisters before adding them to the curry.
By the way, if you make a omelet and add that to soups or whatever dish you're preparing, that soaks up the flavors like a sponge(though I guess it technically is kinda like a sponge).
"Who wouldn't like these kinds of eggs?" Lady, may I introduce my son, the pickiest eater in the world. These legit look good can't wait to try.
They say Americans fry everything and being born here and all, never would have thought! Wonder why we don't do this
@Alpha Architect did u try it!!
This is just random guessing but a lot of American fried foods are batter fried where the host is to get a thick layer of breading and fat/grease over whatever is underneath. The frying here is more akin to tempura where the goal is to get the skin crispy. Plus I don't think generally people would think to braise after they crisped.
Because frying an egg after you boiled it sounds like work.
Frying a raw egg with the shell and everything, now that's American.
@@HobertMallow frying things actually isn't that hard.
@@chattyjazzy7997 it is not until u do the cleanup afterwards lol
I never hated cooked yolk in boiled eggs, to be honest. It tasted really well when eating with soy sauce.
My parents always boiled it until the yolk turned into grey chalk because of some weird superstition about soft/medium boiled eggs.
I like mine mostly cooked through with just a tiny jammy center. I've tried the oozy egg thing and just was not a fan...
I always eat my egg yolk fully boiled. I just hate the taste when its Jammy.
I never understood why sone people get so weird about a fully cooked yolk. Growing up, that is how we boiled all of our eggs, so I never found out about jammy eggs until I was older.
@@eanschaan9392 Same here, in fact this video was the very first time I've ever heard egg yolk referred to as "jammy". I do like pan-fried eggs with runny yolk (over medium), but whenever I've boiled an egg or had them as a kid I've always had hard-boiled (i.e. solid/cooked yolk). I have, of course, heard of soft-boiled eggs but have never had one.
Wow 😳 im gonna try this oneee, it looks delicious 🤤
I'm definitely going to try this!
In the Philippines, we have a street food that we call "Kwek-kwek". It is a fried boiled egg, same with that method but we first coat it with a flour batter colored with a bright orange food coloring. We usually dip it with sweet sauce especially made for street foods. Sometimes with add vinegar to that specialty sauce.
Does it also pop like these eggs?
My Grandfather who would have been 100 in 1989 loved his yolks runny and no one else in the family did. He would dip his toast in it and when he offered me a bite he always said, "it is probably easier if you don't look at it." Wow, Instagram.
Yum! I love it when the yolk is runny in fried eggs! When I was little my always made pancakes with them. Also my family calls runny fried eggs "dippy eggs." 😋
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮runny eggs are disgusting
@@xPhantom_404x "it is probably better if you dont look at it"

@@Gwynbleiddsanity no one cares
I didn't know these existed, now I can't wait to try making them!
This is alchemy man. God bless. I’m so excited to try this.

I made the red braised version for y family the other day, and everyone was so surprised! I had never had an egg like that before and it was delicious :D Thank you for the recipe and the amazing work you do on this channel!
Here in the UK we wrap them in Spiced sausage meat and breadcrumbs before Deep Frying them :) Scotch Eggs are delicious, so I'd certainly try these out!
We also have fried boiled egg here in the Philippines only that it is fried with after getting dipped in batter. It's a common street food called "kwek-kwek". We use quail eggs too.
I was waiting this whole time for him to cut them open once they were fried... Am I blind and/or absent-minded or there wasn't such a moment, lol?
It made me mad it didnt happen lmao
cutting them open is just like a regular boiled egg, the yolk is most of time a bit overdone but still delicious
Thank you for not letting me waste my time lol
Yeah I wanted to see how done they were to calculate about how much time to I need to boil mine so I get the final doneness that I like
He forgot. Check the pinned comment for a photo.
"How I learned to stop worrying and love cooked yolks"
Scrambled Egg lovers: First Time?
wow these look amazing!
In Egypt they also fry boiled eggs. They squeak when you first start frying them, so I call them squeaky eggs. Really great use of all those Easter eggs if you go overboard with coloring eggs.
Whenever I fry eggs I always just freeze them. Once the freeze you can just peel the shell. At that point once you fry you can have both a gummy yolk and the fried egg skin. (I mainly use this for scotch eggs)
Can you elaborate more? When do you freeze before or after you cook the eggs?
@@kevincooksit before, frozen eggs keep for far longer before going bad, and they become relatively solid. As a result, you can bread and fry it really quick, the white gets firm and the yolk is almost like those ramen eggs
I'm going to have to try this the next time I'm inclined to try making scotch eggs.
So, soft boil, freeze, and peel? I haven't tried that. Will have to.
@@silvermediastudio freeze, peel, fry. no soft boiling required. its worked for me
The Philippines also has a fried bolied egg dish however we dip it first in an orange batter and then deep fried. Sold in streets and usually acompanied by cucumber, guso(Eucheuma) and the vinegar sauce that Filipinos love
They are freaking delicious. I was in Thailand and ate those for breakfast lol. Worth it.
Love the Kubrick reference.
I thought I was the only one
Just a tip for anyone like myself. At 4:38 before adding the thickening agent, take out the eggs so you can easily remove the whole spices with a small sieve spoon. Put the eggs back in and continue.
Accidently biting into a whole spice that is in a sauce (or curry or anything) is the easiest way to ruin a meal for me.
I´ve only had these with quail, very rare that chinese peruvian chifa restaurants in Peru would do this, but the first time I tasted this it was amazing
Oh what an awesome idea thank you!
You know the food is good when you see the dog at 6:18 continuously licking the air non-stop.
We do fried boiled egg curry in Bangladesh too!
Super easy but tasty lunch.
Growing up this was homemade school lunch staple.
Realized this oversight when I was doing the tagging :) *Totally* blanked that fried boiled eggs were a huge thing on the Indian subcontinent too, definitely should've included that in with the Indonesian/Thai/Burmese dishes.
yeaah same in India! we always fry our eggs in West Bengal or in the rest of India actually! I think.
Yup we call it dim bhuna!
@@nuzhatmaliat9258 eating it right now
I cannot express to you the joy i felt with this reference of a title. my fav movie. awesome video - cooked yolks arent appreciated enough!
The cultural similarties that almost every country shares within the Asian continent is uncanny! Im from Bangladesh and we have the same idea when we make tiger skin eggs. We call it Dim Bhuna where we make a really spicy curry but its not just the spices that you taste but i have never tasted a level of umami that we get from Dim bhuna and i havent tasted something as savoury as that ever. Just goes to show that borders are abstract and useless when we share such similarities ofcourse there are differences and prejudices that have been ingrained in our psyche through centuries of conditioning but there are somethings like tiger skin eggs that show the similarties that we all may have hidden within our society, i mean i am as human as the next human and how different can we be when we only see whats at the surface ?
looks delicious. I'm going to have to try and add them to some curry sauce.
