Haven't been cooking much lately due to many reasons. Today is the start of the long weekend and so decided to do some simple experimental cooking. Made modification to my original chawamushi recipe by adding mashed tofu. The result wasn't exactly bad, just that it tasted a bit bland due to the tofu and it didn't have a smooth texture like normal chawamushi. Think next time I will need to use more chicken cube and add a bit more light soy sauce.

1/4 chicken cube
100ml water
Method:
1. Dissolve 1/4 chicken cube with 100ml water to make chicken stock
2. Add sugar, rice wine, mirin and light soya sauce to the chicken stock
3. Make sure the chicken stock is at room temperature before adding the egg
4. Use a chopstick to stir the egg in a cutting motion to combine egg and chicken stock without creating too much foam

7. Cover the bowl with foil
8. Steam over high heat for 10mins
9. Off the heat and serve hot

The other dish was steamed salted rice wine chicken, a modification of the usual steamed salted chicken by adding rice wine. Since I had some shredded ham and crabstick left so added them to the dish as well. The taste ok just that I didn't add enough rice wine.
