Bella’s Minced Meat Egg Pudding
This Minced Meat Egg Pudding is the ultimate "healing" meal for the carnivore lifestyle. Inspired by traditional savory egg custards, this version incorporates ground beef for a complete amino acid profile and added satiety. The gentle steam creates a unique texture—firm enough to hold its shape but soft enough to eat with a spoon—making it an ideal choice for breakfast, a quick lunch, or for those with sensitive digestion.
Prep Time 5 minutes mins
Cook Time 15 minutes mins
- 1/2 lb Ground Beef Minced Meat
- 5 Large Eggs
- Water Equal volume to the eggs—approx. 1 cup
- Salt to taste (Optional)
- Animal fat or drizzle of choice For serving
Prepare the Egg Base: In a medium heat-proof bowl, gently whisk the 5 eggs. Measure the volume of the eggs and add an equal amount of water (1:1 ratio). Whisk until fully combined and smooth.
Add the Meat: Place your ground beef (minced meat) directly into the egg mixture. You can crumble it in so it distributes evenly throughout the pudding.
Set Up the Steamer: Place a steamer basket or a rack into a large pan. Fill with approximately 1 inch of water—just enough to create steam without touching the bottom of your bowl. Bring the water to a boil.
Steam: Carefully place the bowl into the pan and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Reduce the heat to low-medium.
Cook: Steam the pudding for 12 to 15 minutes. Avoid peaking too early to keep the steam trapped.
The Bounce Test: Carefully open the lid and gently "pat the belly" of the pudding with the back of a spoon. If it bounces back, it is ready. If it’s still liquid in the center, cover and steam for another 2–3 minutes.
Finish and Serve: Remove the bowl carefully (it will be hot!). Serve immediately while warm. For a boost of flavor and fat, add a drizzle of melted butter, tallow, or your favorite animal-based topping.
