Smooth steam eggs

Ingredients for 2-3 person's portion:
2 Eggs
1 or 2 tbsp oil or sesame oil or oil from fried shallots
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 cup of boiling hot water
Options for extra flavouring: Salted eggs or dried shrimps

1. Beat eggs in a bowl you will steam it in. Add in the salted eggs or dried shrimps if you want to.
2. Add in a dash of soy sauce and some oil.
3. Heat up some water in the wok to steam the eggs
4. Add in the hot water into the bowl to double the amount of eggs in the bowl. Continue beating the eggs.
5. Steam the eggs for 10 minutes.

Voila! Smooth steam eggs.
The trick is to use hot water to beat the eggs first before steaming it. And the dash of oil to make the eggs smoother and less dry on the surface.
