Prepare for Steaming:
- Bring a pot of water to a boil for steaming. Line the steaming tray with a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking.

Steam the Mixture:
- Pour the mixture into a steaming tray, spreading it evenly. Steam over the boiling water for about 10 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean. Let it cool slightly.

Cut and Coat:
-
Once cooled, cut the steamed mixture into bite-sized pieces or nuggets as desired.
-
Prepare a coating station: Place the breadcrumbs in a shallow dish. In another dish, mix 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour with a little water to create a paste for binding.
-
Dip each nugget in the flour paste, ensuring it is evenly coated. Then roll it in the breadcrumbs, pressing gently to make sure the breadcrumbs adhere well.

Fry the Nuggets:
-
Heat cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the coated nuggets in the pan.

Fry the nuggets until they are golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally for even cooking. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
