Foo Yung Recipes

The dish usually appears as a well-folded omelette with the non-egg ingredients, such as vegetables, meat, chicken, seafood or a mixture of various kinds of these. The ingredients embedded in the egg mixture, covered with or served in sauce or gravy. It is readily prepared for take-out and packed in a container.

Foo Yung Ingredients :

• 6 eggs, beaten well
• 1 cup shredded cooked meat (chicken, beef, shrimp, almost any!)
• 2 cups fresh bean sprouts (or 1 can)
• 2 scallions, chopped, including the green ends
• 1 medium onion, shredded
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
• 1 teaspoon MSG (optional)
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1/2 cup chicken stock or water
• Vegetable oil for frying

How To Make Foo Yung :

1. Make gravy if desired (recipe follows). Preheat oven to 200F. Line a platter with several thicknesses of paper towel. Mix all ingredient except the vegetable oil together in a mixing bowl.
2. Heat a frying pan hot and dry. Put in vegetable oil to a depth of about 1/2 inch. Keep oil at this level by adding more, as some is absorbed in cooking. Bring oil temperature to medium. Stir up the omelet mixture each time before you take a scoopful of it out, in order to have the proper ratio of liquid and solid ingredients in each.
3. With a ladle or soup scoop, take a scoop of the egg mixture and gently put into the frying pan. When the first omelet has stiffened, gently move it over to make room for the next. The number of omelets you can make at once depends on the size of your frying pan. When one side of the omelet has turned golden brown, turn over gently with pancake turner to fry the other side. When done, transfer from frying pan onto paper−lined platter. Keep warm in oven until all the omelets can be served together. Serve with or without gravy.

Gravy :

• 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon MSG (optional)
• 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
• Pinch of salt

How To Make Gravy :

1. Mix all the ingredients together in a saucepan. Bring to a boil slowly with frequent stirring.
2. When gravy has thickened, turn heat to very low to keep it warm until ready to use.
