Tea Leave Eggs

I simply just love Tea Leaves Eggs aka 茶叶蛋。 But it is so expensive nowadays to buy it outside. Around $1 to $1.50 per egg! Why not spend about $3 and you can cook 10 eggs? 









Ingredient:

1 pack of 5 spice - the 50 cent pack I had showed in my previous post
10 eggs
2 tablespoon of sugar
3 tablespoon of light soya sauce
1 tablespoon of dark soya sauce
3 sliced of dang gui aka Angelica roots - for extra herbal taste
2 tea bag of Tie Guan Yin or Pu Er or any black tea leaves you prefer


Method:

1) Hard boiled the eggs first and dish out to cool. Use a metal spoon to crack the egg shells.
2) In another pot, bring water to boil and add in all the other ingredients.
3) Add in the eggs and simmer for 1 hour. Tah-dah!

It's so simple right?
