Method:
Mix the dark soya sauce with the limes and chillies into a small sauce plate. Keep aside.
The eggs should be at room temperature and not cold from the fridge. Put the eggs in a bowl and boil a pot of water. When the water comes to a vigorous boil, pour it over the eggs, to cover very well and cover the bowl with the eggs. Leave for 3 to 5 minutes to lightly poach.
In the meantime, wash fruits and cut into bite sized chunks. The fruits should be fresh from the fridge and cold.
Break one egg for each person – into a bowl or a small deep plate. Sprinkle white pepper over the top and slurp the egg in 1 mouthful. This is the traditional way to egg soft boiled eggs. Some people add a little dark soya sauce to add a light salty taste.
Complete your breakfast by dipping the slices of fruit into the soya sauce-chilli-lime mixture.
