SHRIMP EGG FOO YOUNG
A recipe making egg foo young patties and a delicious sauce to put on top. This is a very special recipe acquired when I worked at a Chinese restaurant to pay for my red '66 VW bug when in high school! The recipe card is tattered and spotted now, but the dish is the best egg foo young I have ever had. Hope you enjoy it too! To serve, place egg patty over steamed rice and put the sauce on top.

Steps:
- Beat together the eggs, bean sprouts, green onions, shrimp, and garlic powder in a bowl until well-combined.

Fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side, and repeat with the remaining egg mixture. Set the patties aside.
- Whisk together the chicken broth, cornstarch, sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce in a saucepan over medium-low heat until the sauce simmers and thickens, about 5 minutes. Spoon the sauce over the patties.

SHRIMP AND MUSHROOM EGG FOO YOUNG- (BETTER THAN TAKE-OUT)
I love Chinese take-out, and frequently try different recipes to make at home. Never quite making the grade usually. I have to say I fiddled with this one and I don't think I'll be ordering any more "egg foo young" from our local chinese joint. Don't be surprised on how good this is! It's my recipe but the ideas came from a cooking website speciallizing in Asian cuisine. If you have clam juice, or seafood stock or shrimp stock use it, chicken stock will do, and water if you have none. It will make a difference on the result in the taste of your "chinese omelets'." I have yet to master the gravy part the take-out kind, but I never eat it anyway. So I didn't include one here. If you like you can make your own gravy or use a store bought variety. But I don't think you will miss it much. Your option. I'm by no means biased against gravy.

Steps:
- Prepare the pork and shrimp: Preheat a wok over high heat until hot. Add the peanut oil and swirl to coat. Add the pork and shrimp and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for another minute or so. Transfer the pork and shrimp to a plate and set aside to cool. Wipe out the wok.
- Meanwhile, make the omelets: Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the cabbage, carrot, scallions, peas, bean sprouts, ginger, and the reserved pork and shrimp and stir well to combine. Do not season; salting now will make these omelets watery.
- Preheat the wok over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and one-fourth of the omelet mixture and cook, until the egg is set, about 1 minute. If needed, add a bit more of the beaten egg, pushing in the edges to make the omelet round. Flip and cook until the omelet starts to tighten and brown at the edges, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat to make 3 more omelets, adding more oil to the wok as needed. Season the egg foo yung with salt and serve with one or both of the sauces.
- Whisk together all of the ingredients and heat in a small saucepan until simmering. Remove from the heat, cover and keep warm or let cool, then refrigerate up to 3 days. Rewarm before serving.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a simmer. Meanwhile, combine all of the ingredients except the sesame oil in a medium stainless steel bowl. Place the bowl over the simmering water in the saucepan (do not let the bowl touch the water). Whisk occasionally until the yolks set, 5 to 7 minutes. Whisk in the sesame oil. Taste and add more sugar, if desired. Cover and keep warm or let cool, then refrigerate up to 3 days. Rewarm gently before serving.
