01 Crack the eggs into a measuring jug or mixing bowl.
02 Add a small amount of salt.
03 Beat the eggs thoroughly with chopsticks until the whites and yolks are evenly combined.
04 Measure the volume of the beaten egg.
05 Add warm water equal to 1.5 times the volume of the egg liquid.
06 Stir thoroughly until the egg and water are evenly combined.
07 Pour the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a shallow heat-safe serving dish.
08 Remove any remaining bubbles or foam from the surface.
09 Place the dish in the LumiBake S1 Pro 18L.
10 Cover the dish with a heat-safe lid or an inverted metal tray to protect the surface from the oven airflow.
11 Open the preset menu and select Menu P2.
12 Cook at 100°C for 15 minutes.
13 Carefully open the oven after the hot vapour has safely dispersed.
14 Remove the cover without allowing condensation to drip onto the custard.
15 Take out the egg custard and allow it to settle briefly.
16 Cut long, narrow strips from the cucumber peel to form flower stems.
17 Cut smaller cucumber-peel pieces into leaf shapes.
18 Use a small flower-shaped cutter to cut flowers from the cheese slices.
19 Arrange the cucumber stems across the surface of the custard.
20 Position the cucumber leaves along the stems.
21 Place the cheese flowers at the tops of the stems.
22 Add a small dot of tomato ketchup to the centre of each cheese flower.
23 Drizzle light soy sauce carefully around the flower design.
24 Serve warm while the custard is soft and silky.
