Creative colorful artistic braised eggs

Hard-boiled eggs are wrapped snugly around fresh leaves, then braised until leafy silhouettes bloom onto the shells in amber. Playful and picturesque, they make breakfast feel like a small art project.

Instructions

    Wash the eggs several more times.

    Cook in the pot. I first add the eggs, then a little bit of white vinegar (makes peeling easier), and then turn on the heat to cook for 10 minutes.

    Adding a bit of white vinegar while cooking makes it very easy to peel each egg individually, without breaking a single one.

    Add red dragon fruit powder to an appropriate amount of water and mix well.

    Step image

    First, add enough water to the pot, then add an appropriate amount of cooking wine, braised egg seasoning, salt, and red dragon fruit powder (the color seemed a bit light, so some red yeast rice powder was added later), then put in the eggs and braise for 20 minutes.

    Because it was made after eight o'clock last night and soaked overnight, if made during the day it doesn't need to be soaked for too long (the color is what I want).

    Take out the marinated eggs, the color is very beautiful!

    Remove the leaves from the egg, rinse it, wow, it's so beautiful!
