Steamed and plain is safe in small amounts.
Dogs and cats carry the same rating (Safe to share), so the notes below hold for either pet.

There is no poisoning risk here, and the usual problem is simply eating too much at once: a heavy fat or salt load can bring on loose stools or a single vomit. Offer water, keep an eye on the pet for 24 hours, and do not induce vomiting.
