*Note- If making for large family or large serves I would double theses quantities- equaling in around 6 large serves

I don’t like cooking in the microwave but it can be easily done on the stove of course

  You can certainly cook it on the stove, I’m also not a big fan of the microwave but I love how fluffy and oil free it makes the eggs.

  It gives the best fluffy texture, stops it from being all oily and it so easy to prepare, my uncle is Chinese and cooks his eggs like this for rice.
