Yen Can Cook ~ Salted Egg Yolk Sweet Corn
Do you like salted egg yolk dishes, such as salted egg yolk sotong (squid), salted egg yolk pumpkin, salted egg yolk chicken or even salted egg yolk pasta and many more? Yasssssss, salted egg yolk anything, give it to me!!
Other than the aforementioned hot food, salted egg yolk can be associated into pastry (think salted egg yolk croissant and mooncake) or snack (assorted salted egg yolk chips) and even ice cream, you name it, it’s probably been salted egg yolk-ed.(^○^)

Today’s recipe is a super duper easy yet delicious salted egg yolk dish that everyone should try out!

I really did not expect this dish at all. Ha 😀 That is new. Must be equally flavourful too I reckon.
Tekkaus, salted egg yolk surely give a great flavours to the mild tasting corn.
First time seeing salted egg yolk sweet corn. It must be nice, the combination of the fragrance and sweetness of the corn with the salted egg yolk.
PH, the more salted egg yolk, the more happiness, haha!
The salted egg yolk dishes I know are usually with a protein. This one with corn is a first for me….makes a rather indulgent snack I have to say! 😉
Kris, salted egg yolk + vegetable is quite common too, like with pumpkin, bitter gourd and lady finger, that I shared the recipe before.
