Description
Known for its fluffy, pan-fried egg patties filled with vibrant vegetables and topped with a savory brown gravy, this dish is not only a treat for your taste buds but also incredibly easy to prepare at home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon white pepper
Instructions
- Begin by heating your nonstick skillet over medium heat, adding just a small amount of vegetable oil to coat the bottom. In a mixing bowl, crack the 6 large eggs and whisk them together until well beaten. Next, incorporate bean sprouts, sliced green onions, finely chopped onion, shredded carrots, soy sauce, and white pepper into the eggs. Mixing these ingredients ensures every bite is bursting with flavor.
- Once your egg mixture is ready, it’s time to form and cook your patties. Using a ladle, scoop portions of the egg mixture and pour them into the hot skillet, forming round patties. Be cautious not to overcrowd the skillet; cooking in batches allows for even cooking and browning. Allow the patties to cook for about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and fully set.
- In a separate saucepan, bring 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth and 1 teaspoon of sugar to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Once simmering, stir in the cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons of water, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue to cook until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.
Notes
Cooking the patties in small batches prevents overcrowding and ensures they cook evenly. For a richer flavor, consider using homemade chicken broth instead of store-bought.
