Housewives can refer to the recipe for making delicious and flavorful corn and salt-egg flavored snails to treat the family. With the perfect combination of the crispness of the snails, the light sweetness of corn and the fatty corn and salt-egg sauce will be a great suggestion for the weekend menu.
To make corn and egg salad scented snails, prepare 500g of fresh scented snails (should choose fresh snails, not with rotten heads); 1 sweet corn kernel; 4 salted egg yolks; 30g of unsalted butter; 2 dried shallots; 1 clove of garlic; 1 fresh chili; 1 sprig of lemongrass and some spices including fish sauce, rock sugar, seasoning granules, unsweetened fresh milk and cooking oil.
Start by pre-processing the fragrant snails thoroughly to remove mud and sand. Buy fragrant snails and soak them in rice water or filtered water with a few slices of fresh chili, add salt and soak for 1 to 2 hours to help snails release all dirt. Wash them repeatedly, then briefly boil the fragrant snails in a pot of boiling water with a crushed lemongrass stalk for about 2 minutes and then take them out to drain.
Separate sweet corn seeds, boil until cooked. Salted egg yolk, apply a little cooking oil, steam for about 10 minutes and then use a fork to blend until smooth.
Next, place a pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and 30g of unsalted butter to melt, then add minced shallots and garlic and sauté until fragrant. Continue to add the crushed egg yolk and stir well over low heat until the mixture bubbles smoothly and emits a fragrant aroma.
Add 50ml of unsweetened fresh milk to the sauce pan, season with a little fish sauce, rock sugar and seasoning so that the saltiness and sweetness are harmonious. When the sauce starts to become smooth, add all the boiled fragrant snails and sweet corn and stir quickly at medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes to help the fatty salted egg sauce layer stick around the snail shell and absorb into the corn kernels.
Corn flavored spicy snails with salted eggs can be eaten with crispy toast to fully enjoy the fatty and delicious flavor.
