Steamed Egg White Custard
A perfect low carb, low fat, high protein snack for post workout! Simple and easy to make too!
Ingredients
- 2 Large egg whites ((I used Now Foods Egg white protein powder) 2 Tbsp powder mixed with 6 Tbsp water)
- 2oz Wild Planet Sardines in Water ((pretty much half amount in the can))
- 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil for greasing the ramekin
Directions
|
Step 1
|
| Heat the double boiler in high heat. |
|
Step 2
|
|
If you are using fresh egg whites, separate the yolks (best done when eggs are still cold). Reserve the yolks for other use. Lightly beat egg whites. If you are like me using egg white protein powder, follow the directions on the jar. Now Foods, the brand that I used recommend mixing 2 Tbsp egg white powder with 6 Tbsp water to get 2 egg whites |  |
|
Step 3
|
|
Mash the sardines (I used Wild Planet brand) and divide the mixture into 2. Make sure the sardines are only packed in water and salt. |  |
|
Step 4
|
| Lightly grease your ramekin with coconut oil. |
|
Step 5
|
| Line the bottom of ramekin with 1/2 of the sardine mixture, then topped with the egg whites. |
|
Step 6
|
|
By this time, the water should be boiling high already. Reduce the heat to medium low. Place the ramekin in the double boiler, cover and let it cook for about 10 minutes or until the egg white has set. |  |
|
Step 7
|
|
Remove from heat and wait until it cools down a bit before digging in! |  |
