From CindyKQ!
6 eggs
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 c. thinly-sliced celery
1 c. fresh bean sprouts
1 med. thinly-sliced onion
4 Tbsp. oil, preferably peanut
In medium bowl, lightly beat eggs with pepper; set aside. In large skillet over medium
heat, stir-fry the veggies in 2 Tbsp. oil until crisp-tender.
Drain off any cooking oil/veggy juice; add to eggs and mix well. Heat 2 Tbsp.
oil in skillet on medium-high heat, until hot but not smoking. Pour 1/2 c. egg mixture
into pan, as many at a time as you can easily handle. When edges
are brown, flip each "pancake" and brown the other side. Serve on hot rice
with sauce spooned over all.
EFY sauce
1 c. water
1 bouillion cube, vegetable , chicken or beef
2 Tbsp. each soy sauce and corn starch
1/2 tsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. dry sherry, if desired (and I don't, I hate sherry)
Mix all sauce ingredients well, in small saucepan. Turn burner to medium-high
and bring mixture to a boil, stirring all the while. It'll thicken when it
comes to a boil; when it does so, remove from heat and let it cool a bit
before serving. I like to make this before the EFY pancakes." |
