Easy Three Ingredient Egg Dumplings...


Three ingredient egg dumplings 😛. Yes you heard right... essentially, all you need are eggs, sweet potato noodles and green onions to make this tasty handheld snack! Often, the best things in life are the simplest things. And eggs tend to draw us in with that winning combo of simple comfort 🥚.

I saw this on a Korean cooking youtube vid and was so enthralled by its easy deliciousness I had to make it asap! To season, simply add salt and pepper, or enliven the noodles with soy sauce, sesame oil and sugar. So many ways to customize- mix eggs with finely chopped carrots and corn. Place a cooked shrimp in its centre. Add chopped Asian herbs. Just ensure that your ingredients will cook through as the cooking time is quick. Cut finely or add in cooked. 
Spice things up by adding chopped red chilies or serve with sriracha. 

As a snack before after school classes, my sons went gaga! Nothing makes this mama happier than happy bellies! Excited of the reactions also with my social sharing, these will be on our Chinese New Year menu this weekend 😀.

Don't they look so-o appetizing?

Easy Three Ingredient Egg Dumplings
Makes 12

4 large eggs
1 small bunch of sweet potato noodles (about 60 g), cooked according to package directions
1 or 2 green onions, halved and chopped
salt and ground black or white pepper to taste
oil for pan-frying

or/ season cooked noodles with 2 Tbsp. soy sauce, 1 Tbsp. sesame oil and 2 tsp. sugar (mix well)
or/ season with 1 tsp. fish sauce

Cut the cooked noodles into small pieces about 1/2-inch in a medium bowl.


Add the eggs, onions and seasonings. Whisk well with a fork.


Heat oil in pan on medium heat. When hot, ladle about 1/3 cup egg mixture onto pan and spread into ovals. Work in batches, keeping the eggs from touching, cook until the bottom is golden brown about one minute. Using a spatula, carefully flip one oval side up to meet the other side (form into a half moon). Press slightly to seal and cook thoroughly for another minute or two more. 


So scrump!



This son could not get enough of egg dumplings. Eyes and mouth wide with delight!


Handheld portable comfort right there!
