Steps:
- Put the eggs in a large saucepan and add cold water to cover. Bring to the boil and let simmer about nine minutes. Drain.
- Hold the eggs under cold running water and peel them. Pat dry.
- Heat the oil for deep-frying (375 degrees) in a wok or skillet and add the eggs. Cook about one and one-half minutes or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper toweling.
- To prepare the sauce, combine in a mortar the shrimp paste, hot pepper, garlic, galangal, lime leaves, candlenuts and chopped shallots. Blend as thoroughly as possible.
- Heat one tablespoon of oil in a wok or skillet and add the blended ingredients. Cook, stirring, about one minute, then add the shrimp. Cook, stirring, about one minute more. Add the tomatoes and simmer about one minute. Add the coconut milk and salt and bring to the boil, stirring. Spoon the mixture into a serving dish. Slice the eggs and arrange them, cut side up, over the shrimp sauce.
- Heat the remaining two cups of oil in a wok or skillet and add the thinly sliced shallots. Cook, stirring, until crisp and golden brown. Drain. Sprinkle the eggs with the crisp shallots.
