Step 4

Fill the rice cooker with water up to the halfway point of the ramekin to create a gentle steaming environment.

Step 5

for the Cook the Egg:

Step 1

Close the lid of the rice cooker and start the cooking process.

Step 2

The cooking time may vary depending on your rice cooker model, but typically it takes about 15 minutes. Check it around the 10-15 minute mark.

Step 3

for the Garnish and Serve:

Step 1

Once cooked, carefully remove the ramekin from the rice cooker.

Step 2

Garnish the steamed egg with a drizzle of soy sauce, a few drops of sesame oil, a sprinkle of finely chopped green onions, and sesame seeds.

Step 3

Serve immediately and enjoy a soft, delicate Steamed Egg that's savory and rich in flavor.
