Steamed Pork Patty with Century Egg, Preserved Vegetables, Black Fungus, and Shiitake Mushrooms

Hand-chopped pork is mixed with shiitake, wood ear, carrot, and preserved winter vegetable, seasoned with soy and sesame oil, and steamed into a savory meat patty with eggs cracked on top. The patty is juicy, bouncy, and packed with umami, a classic comforting dish.
