It took me a while to get this right (almost 1 year) & finally I think I managed to achieve the texture & the softness.
There are 2 important factors
1. The eggs & water ratio is 1:2
If 4 eggs measured to 1 cup then 2 cups of water is needed. Mix well.
2. The heat control.
Let the steaming water boiled then add the eggs. Turn to medium-low & let it steam for 15 minutes. This will minimise the bubbles forming in the eggs.

NB: cover the egg mixture with cling wrap / plate / lid to prevent additional water getting into the egg mixture during steaming.
Voilà!
Garnish with sesame oil, light soya sauce, fried garlic / fried onions & coriander / spring onions.
Chin's notes:
1. Sieved the eggs mixture to remove any impurity & bubbles.
2. I used an electric steamer / rice cooker.
3. If I used the rice cooker , I will put in the eggs mixture after 10 minutes in cooking mode.
4. You can add some salt / chicken stock to the eggs before streaming. But I prefer to add light soya sauce & sesame oil to my steamed eggs. :P
