Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 slice Fresh Ginger
35 gram Onion
1/4 cup Canola Oil
1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
1 1/2 cup Unsalted Chicken Stock
1 1/2 tablespoon Soy Sauce
1/2 teaspoon Granulated Sugar
1/4 teaspoon Chicken Bouillon Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1 tablespoon Sherry Wine
1 tablespoon Oyster Sauce
1 dash Ground White Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Dark Soy Sauce
1/4 teaspoon Sesame Oil
2 Large Egg
20 gram Napa Cabbage
20 gram Bean Sprouts
20 gram Frozen Peas and Carrots
as needed Frying Oil

Steps:

  • In a pot with Canola Oil (1/4 cup) at medium low heat, add chopped Onion (15 gram) and Fresh Ginger (1 slice).
  • Cook until onions turn brown in color then strain into a cup, saving the flavored oil.
  • Add the flavored oil back into the pot and add in All-Purpose Flour (1/4 cup).
  • Mix until there are no lumps.
  • Add in Unsalted Chicken Stock (1 1/2 cup) a 1/4 cup at a time. Make sure to stir in between additions until smooth before adding the next 1/4 cup.
  • Add in Soy Sauce (1 1/2 tablespoon), Granulated Sugar (1/2 teaspoon), Salt (1/4 teaspoon), Sesame Oil (1/4 teaspoon), Chicken Bouillon Powder (1/4 teaspoon), Sherry Wine (1 tablespoon), Oyster Sauce (1 tablespoon), Dark Soy Sauce (1/2 teaspoon) and Ground White Pepper (1 dash). Stir until combined.
  • Transfer gravy into serving bowl and set aside.
  • Slice the Napa Cabbage (20 gram) into strips.
  • Finely chop the Onion (20 gram)
  • In a pot or wok of boiling water, start by blanching the onions for 5 to 10 seconds. Add in the Bean Sprouts (20 gram) and Frozen Peas and Carrots (20 gram) and blanch for 20 seconds and drain.
  • Use a paper towel to wipe off excess moisture. This ensures that it doesn't fall apart when frying. Then transfer the vegetables to a bowl.
  • Crack the Large Egg (2) and add them in. Mix the eggs and vegetables together just until there are no egg whites and all vegetables are coated.
  • Heat some Frying Oil (as needed) to 340 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • Use a ladle and scoop half a cup of the egg mixture.
  • Gently lower the egg mixture into the oil using the side of the wok as support. Fry for about 40 to 50 seconds on one side. Pour some of the hot oil on top of the egg so that it won't break when flipping.
  • Pour some of the hot oil on top of the egg so that it won't break when flipping. Flip the egg and cook for another 20 to 30 seconds.
  • Set aside to drain the excess oil.
  • Serve with the prepared gravy and enjoy!

EASY EGG FOO YUNG



Easy Egg Foo Yung image

This recipe uses a can of Chop Suey vegetables and a can of mixed Chinese vegetables instead of individual cans of bean sprouts, water chestnuts, celery, and bamboo shoots. No more partial cans of these leftover when you use this recipe. Very convenient.

Provided by Starman5

Categories     Vegetable

Time 58m

Yield 4 6-inch diameter patties, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 eggs
1 (14 ounce) can chop suey vegetables (I use La Choy)
1 (14 ounce) can fancy mixed-chinese vegetables (LaChoy)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon white pepper
oil based cooking spray

Steps:

  • Lightly beat the eggs with the soy sauce and pepper in a medium size bowl.
  • Drain the Chop Suey vegetables, then pick out the bamboo shoots, celery, and water chestnuts and dice into ¼ inch pieces or smaller.
  • Add all of the Chop Suey vegetables to the bowl and mix.
  • Heat an 6-inch skillet (I prefer a cast iron skillet) to a medium high heat, spray the bottom and sides with a vegetable oil spray. If you prefer a thinner pancake, use a 10-inch skillet.
  • Pour one fourth of the mixture (about 3/4 cup) into the skillet and cook 6-8 minutes or until bottom is browned (if using a 10-inch skillet, cook for 4 to 5 minutes).
  • Carefully flip and cook 5-6 minutes or until bottom is browned (if using a 10-inch skillet, cook for 2 to 3 minutes).
  • Respray the skillet with the cooking oil and repeat the cooking steps for the rest of the mixture.
  • Serve plain or with with Easy Egg Foo Yung Sauce.
