Steamed eggs and Rice (Gyeran Jjim)

Savory Korean-style steamed eggs are a real delicacy at any meal.:D Gyeran Jjim (Steamed Eggs) consists of eggs, water, milk(or just water) something salty( I used salt) and a side or two.



Ingrediants
 2 eggs
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup milk (skim or 2%)
optional... ketchup

Instructions
          whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and water until foamy. Pour into a heat safe ceramic bowl, such as a ramekin. Place the bowl in a pan. Fill the pan with hot water halfway up the sides of the bowl. Cover the pan with a clear glass lid. Cook over low-medium heat for 20 minutes, making sure the water stays at a simmer, or until the eggs are set. They should be firm but jiggly and have the consistency of custard. Remove ramekin and put desired topping on. Serve with a side of rice and your favorite Kimchi. :).... Or just rice.

Variations
substitute water and salt for some sort of broth (beef, miso, chicken, or other )
optional toppings---- ideas include, scallions, fried mushrooms, toasted sesame seeds, red curry paste(just a tiny bit) ground ginger, red pepper, kimchi, etc.
