Method

Boil the eggs for 3 minutes in the water and put them in a bath of ice. Ensure eggs are at room temperature.
Start with our butter. Add little bit of oil so it will not get burned.
Put the head of the shrimp just to get some of the flavor.
Add the shrimp, and once it's brown, set aside.
Sauté our onion and garlic.
After the onion and garlic is brown, put our vegetable and add a ginisa mix.
Add our mushroom, add little bit of water, cover, and steam, taking about 10 minutes total.
Add our cream, and add little bit of allpurpose cream to make it thick.
Add the cooked eggs on the last.

👨‍🍳 Chef’s tips

The more buttery it is, the better.
Add little bit of oil to the butter so it will not get burned.
Put the head of the shrimp just to get some of the flavor.
Remember that ginisa means sauté.
Don't want to overcook the vegetable.
Since the eggs are cooked already, of course, it's going to be on the last.
