  1. Prepare the Mixture:

    • In a blender or food processor, combine the ground pork, chicken, crab meat, coconut milk, chopped spring onions, fresh coriander, sliced lemongrass, minced garlic cloves, fish sauce, palm sugar, and black peppercorns.
    • Blend or process until the mixture is well combined and forms a smooth paste-like consistency.
    • Transfer the mixture into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Prepare the Egg Mixture:

    • In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks.
    • Add 1 of the egg yolks and continue to beat until the mixture becomes thick and creamy.
  3. Combine Pork and Egg Mixtures:

    • Gently fold the beaten egg whites and yolk into the pork mixture until fully incorporated.
    • Ensure the mixture is well combined but still light and airy.
  4. Form Cups:

    • Spoon the pork and egg mixture into each bowl, pressing down firmly to pack it in.
    • Smooth the tops of the mixture in each bowl for a neat finish.
  5. Steam the Cups:

    • Brush the tops of each cup with the remaining egg yolk for a glossy finish.
    • Prepare a bamboo steamer over a pot of boiling water.
    • Place the bowls in the steamer, ensuring they are not touching.
    • Cover and steam for about 20 minutes or until the cups are cooked through and firm to touch.
  6. Cool and Serve:

    • Once cooked, remove the bowls from the steamer and allow them to cool slightly.
    • Carefully turn out each cup onto a cutting board and cut into wedges.
  7. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Arrange the steamed cups on a platter over a bed of sliced cucumbers and bean sprouts.
    • Garnish with fresh coriander leaves and a sprinkle of black pepper.
    • Serve with chili jam or sauce on the side for an extra kick of flavor.
