2. Prepare the Vegetables and Tempe:
   While the pumpkin is steaming, dice the carrot, tempe, and steamed pumpkin into small cubes. Thinly slice the shallots and mince the garlic.

3. Sauté the Aromatics:
   Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and shallots. Sauté them until they turn fragrant and golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

4. Combine the Ingredients:
   Add the diced tempe, carrot, and steamed pumpkin to the pan. Stir everything together and cook for another 5-7 minutes, letting the flavors combine. Season with a pinch of salt and sugar, adjusting to taste. Stir until everything is evenly mixed and fully cooked.

5. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
   In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs and lightly season with a pinch of salt.

6. Assemble the Dish:
   Once the vegetables and tempe are cooked, transfer a small portion of the mixture into a steamer-safe mold or small individual containers. Pour a layer of the egg mixture over the top of the vegetables. Add a little more of the vegetable-tempe mix on top and pour another layer of egg over it.

7. Steam the Dish:
   Carefully place the molds in the steamer and steam for 15 to 30 minutes or until the egg is fully set and the top is slightly firm.

8. Serve:
   Once steamed, allow the dish to cool slightly before serving. This dish can be served as a light breakfast or as part of a wholesome lunch.
