eggs to the pan. Boil for 5 minutes exactly.

Once boiled, place the eggs in a bowl of cold water to
cool, running cold water from the tap over them for a
minute or so, to ensure that they stop cooking. Once
cooled, crack the eggs all the way around the shell, but
do not peel the eggs at this point

Once cracked. place the eggs in the chilled, marbled
marinade for a minimum of 5 hours, or overnight in the
fridge. Then peel and serve as a snack with crisps or as
a side dish to a cold beer Hong Kong style!
