Chef's Notes
Do not shy away from the belachan paste when it hits the hot oilβits fierce aroma is merely the fragrance of deep, umami greatness unlocking before your very eyes!
Pro Tip
When streaming the egg into the swirling sauce, do not over-stir! You want delicate ribbons of silk, not an accidental scrambled egg catastrophe.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Beware, amateur gastronome! If you dare to scramble that egg like a panicked camp cook instead of gently swirling it into silky ribbons, or if you skimp on the golden mantou buns and leave yourself with no vessel to mop up the glorious sauce, you will be banished from the dining room in utter disgrace.

The Culinary Science
The fiery capsaicin in the red chillies binds to your pain receptors, tricking your brain into feeling heat, which paradoxically triggers a release of endorphins and pure culinary euphoria.
