Method
- Mix ground pork, beaten eggs, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, raisins, relish, carrot, bell pepper, soy sauce, salt, and pepper until just cohesive.
- Fry a teaspoon-size test patty and correct the seasoning.
- Lay a double sheet of foil on the worktop and spread one-third of the mixture into a rectangle.
- Arrange sausage strips and hard-boiled egg along the centre.
- Roll tightly with the foil into an even cylinder and twist the ends; repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Steam 45–60 minutes, until the centre reaches at least 71°C.
- Rest 15 minutes before unwrapping. Chill for the cleanest slices or brown the exterior briefly if serving hot.
- Slice into rounds and serve with banana ketchup or a light tomato sauce.
