Yesterday I watched a Oaxacon Festival where they fixed a traditional dish. It was Eggs with Chicken, fixed with Chicken Broth in quantities to feed 50 couples and children.
The chicken was boiled and deboned creating a chicken stock. Whole eggs were then whisked with the shredded chicken added, a bit of cumin and chilis. The mixture was then poured into the boiling chicken stock and stirred with a paddle until the eggs setup. A gourd dipper was used to fill the cereal bowls with the setup eggs and chicken mixture garnished with 1/2 red pepper filled with chili sauce.
I had to try it, but instead of chicken I used smoked ham. I wasn't sure of quantities and only had Reddi Egg in the fridge so I improvised. I'm not sure I would make it again but I ended up with a cereal bowl full of 'scrambled' eggs and a cereal bowl of egg flower soup after straining the eggs.
