The baskets of eggs in the market caught my attention. Not because of chicken eggs or duck eggs. But other types of eggs. I am interested in seeing quail eggs. It's a small egg but holds a big memory for me.

Have you ever eaten Quail Eggs before? I can't remember the last time I ate Quail Eggs. During childhood, Quail Eggs were popularly sold as snacks after school. Quail Eggs are sold boiled, but not peeled. Then in my childhood, I and my little friends would compete to peel Quail Eggs at that time. Peeling Quail Eggs is fun, and tricky too. If Quail Eggs are peeled improperly, the edible portion of the egg will be wasted along with the eggshell. So it's very challenging.

Even when I was very young, I found Quail Eggs in the wild or forest near my house. In the past, here we could easily find delicious food ingredients from nature without buying them. Now, everything has changed. Like it or not, we have to grow and develop what we have been hard to get naturally from nature.

Well, Quail Eggs are suitable as an alternative for those of you who want to eat eggs but with quick bite sizes. With mini size, it can avoid us from feeling sick or too full.

Quail Eggs are suitable as side dish menus. Usually mixed with other ingredients such as tofu, tempeh, or small shrimp.

In the recipe that I will share this time, I use tempeh as a compliment because a few days ago I just ate tofu. So tempeh is the right choice for me this time.




Why Green Chillies Seasoning?

F1FC800C-373E-4CE4-97F4-CE890E0BF568.jpeg

For those of you who often see my cooking blog, you must have seen that I often use red chilies instead of green chilies. This time I did not use red chili.

Actually, using green chilies is a tricky thing. Green chili has an uncomfortable taste when mixed with the wrong ingredients (I find it difficult to explain the taste in English words). Green chili has a spicy that is not too strong.

Well, for seasoning Quail Eggs, I'm used to using green chilies. So this time I will share the recipe for Quail Eggs and tempeh with green chilies seasoning.

I also told my mother that I would cook Quail Eggs. My mother was very excited because she had not enjoyed Quail Eggs in a long time.

I hope you guys will enjoy my simple recipe this time, which is inspired by my happy childhood. Stay tuned.




THE INGREDIENTS

While waiting for the quail eggs to cook, we can prepare the other ingredients. Green chilies. Also, chop onions and garlic. Don't forget to cut the tempeh into small pieces. Here I cut the tempeh into cubes.




STEP 3

Heat the oil, then sauté the green chilies, onion, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally until fragrant and green chilies look wilted. Make sure the garlic doesn't burn.




STEP 4

After seasoning becomes fragrant, add tempeh. Stir for a while. Add a little water so it doesn't burn. Then add the quail eggs. Don't forget to add salt and pepper.

Taste correction and lift. Serve the quail eggs and tempeh while warm.

My mother really liked the results of my cooking this time, because it didn't taste as good when using red chili. The combination of quail eggs and tempeh can bring us to happy nostalgic times, and we are grateful for the delicious dishes that we can still taste today. It is a blessing and love from God. :)

Whatever food we enjoy today, is a blessing. It will strengthen us, give us the energy to continue to live life and find solutions to all of our problems. And..., never give up.

My dad bred with quail for years but I found the eggs way too tricky to peel. Although my dad gave me a special peeling tool. I love the idea of green chilli quail eggs. Great flavour combination @anggreklestari

Soak them into ice water really help to peel egg shell quickly:)

What is the tempeh?
At first, I thought it is frozen ice LOL.
Tempeh is Tofu?
Your recipe is easy, thank you for sharing. ^^

Tempeh is fermented soybean.

Tofu is Made from soybean milk (needed to blend with water first)

So both of them really different in texture tho. Tofu is smooth, Tempeh is hard in texture

Your recipes always look delicious and have healthy ingredients! Green chilies, onion and garlic go well paired together. Happy to hear your mom enjoyed your yummy meal🍽😋🍲

I never ate quail eggs (to the best of my knowledge.) Not sure how available they are where I live, though I am 100% open to trying them as I enjoy eating eggs and keep a handful of boiled eggs in the refrigerator for breakfast, sliced on salads, and as a snack. Our Siberian husky gets a little bit of boiled eggs with her dry dog food several times a week too.

Hope you have a terrific Monday! @anggreklestari💕
