Steam the eggs for 5-6 minutes in a steamer. After the said time, remove from heat and set aside to cool a bit.
Note: Do not fill the pan to the brim as the eggs will expand while steaming. Keep that in mind.

Run a knife through the sides of the bowl and gently use the knife to release the eggs from the bottom of the bowl. Invert to a plate and cut the steamed egg into small bite sized cubes.
