HOW TO MAKE EGG FOO YUNG
Step 1: Beat the eggs in a large bowl, then add the red pepper, celery, mushrooms, onions, bean sprouts, half of the scallions, and the chicken.
Step 2: Combined the chicken broth in a small saucepan along with the soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar. In a bowl, blend cornstarch and water over low heat. Gradually stir in the sauce in the pan, stirring continuously until the sauce has thickened and it bubbles.
Step 3: Heat half tsp of canola oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add about a half cup of the egg mixture to the skillet and cook until the bottom turned lightly brown. Flip and continue to cook the other side.
Step 4: When done, transfer the Egg Foo Yung on a plate and keep it warm. Do the same until the batter is all used up.
Step 5: Serve the Egg Foo Yung warm with gravy and sprinkle with the remaining scallions. Enjoy!
