Steam Savoury Egg Custard with Mince Meat

A dish I made this evening for dinner. A simple dish to make and always taste yummy.
**
You may not want to add the fried garlic onto the egg custard if you're not much of a garlic fan. My hubby doesn't like it with garlic. So, this is aboslutely an optional choice for you.
**
Here's the recipe.....
**
Ingredients:-
- 3 eggs
- 3 tbsps of minced meat (marinated with 1 tsp of concentrated chicken stock, a dash of pepper and 1 tsp of sesame seed oil)
- 200ml water
- Salt and pepper
**
Topping:-
- 2 tbsps oil
- 2 tbsps chopped garlic
- 50ml water
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tbsps soy sauce
- 2 tbsps sliced spring onions

1) In a heatproof dish, beat the eggs with water, salt, pepper and minced meat until thoroughly mixed.
2) Prepare a wok / steamer for steaming
3) Bring water to boil, then turn down the flame to low
4) Steam the dish for 10-15 mins, or until eggs are set
5) Heat oil in a pan and add in chopped garlic to brown lightly.
6) Sprinkle the browned garlic on to the custard.
7) Then add soy sauce, water and sugar to the oil which is still in the pan
8) Bring to boil and pour over the custard.
9) Garnish with sliced spring onion.
