Half Boiled Eggs with Milo 半生熟鸡蛋配美禄

Bit Bit wanted to make a typical breakfast which Bit Bit had always eaten for breakfast when Bit Bit was young. Bit Bit remembers sitting at the kopitiam (coffee shop), waiting for the uncle to put condensed milk at the bottom of the cup and pour hot milo made with the milo powder in the tins, and then cracking two eggs to give off two perfectly nice round egg yolks.

This dish only needs 10 minutes to prepare a nice and yummy breakfast.

Things that Bit Bit found out about half boiled eggs with milo:

• The eggs used should be fresh and at room temperature. If the eggs are too cold, it will crack once one puts it in the boiling water.
• To ensure easy cracking of the eggs, wash the hot eggs under running water for a while to let the eggs cool down. It will also stop the cooking process slightly.
• Be careful while cracking the eggs, Bit Bit used too much strength and caused the egg yolks to break. Try hitting the eggs at the top part instead of the middle to avoid the egg yolk from being hit.
• Drinking milo together with eating half boiled eggs, will cleanse the eggy feeling in the mouth, and feel more satisfied.
• One can also pour the milo and half boiled eggs together, they taste great together.
