Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 whole salted duck eggs
- 50 grams unsalted butter
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 small red chili
- 120 milliliters evaporated milk
- 5 grams sugar
- 10 milliliters fish sauce
- 2 grams black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the salted duck eggs: crack them open, remove the yolks, and mash them with a fork until smooth. Discard the whites or reserve for another use.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and chop the small red chili, removing the seeds if a milder flavor is preferred.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter till it starts to bubble slightly.
Add the minced garlic and chopped red chili to the butter, sauté until the garlic turns golden brown and aromatic, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the mashed salted egg yolks into the pan and stir continuously, letting them cook and dissolve in the butter, creating a paste-like consistency.
Slowly pour in the evaporated milk while stirring, ensuring the yolks mix well and the sauce begins to thicken.
Season the sauce with sugar, fish sauce, and pepper, adjusting to taste if necessary.
Allow the sauce to simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently until it reaches a creamy consistency.
Once the sauce has thickened, remove it from heat and serve it warm over your choice of main dish.
