An even more elegant addition to curries: separate the salted egg, divide the yolks – which have hardened by soaking in the brine – and roll them into 4 balls, steaming them in 10 minutes.
Mix well the egg whites of the salted egg and the fresh egg. (Sometimes the egg whites are mixed with a little bit of rice flour to make a dough.) Dip the cooled yolk balls into the egg white mixture and then deep-fry them in sufficiently hot oil until crispy.
