Egg Foo Young

Antonia's Choice: Egg Foo Young

Today we picked a recipe from one of the Cookbook's that Antonia grew up on. She grew up in Nebraska which is always fun for me because I get to eat things I never had before! I had my first Fondue with her and now I had Egg Foo Young for the first time. I hate to admit this but I will - I thought it was a Chinese Dish but not so much. It is a very simple very hearty pancake patty with eggs, veggies, and ground meat in it. You can have it as plain pancakes with a yummy sauce or with Antonia's suggestion, Put them in sandwiches - yum. Did I mention these are super easy to make??

Here is how you make them:

First, the ingredients:

•  Ground Beef (or any ground meat you choose)
• celery (2 stalks chopped)
• 6 eggs
• 1 onion 
• sprouts 

Brown the meat.

 

Chop the celery and onion.

 

In a medium bowl, add 6 eggs and beat them. Then, add the chopped celery, onions, and sprouts.

 

 

 

 

Heat up a pancake skillet to medium high. Pour a little oil on skillet. Scoop up the liquid in a little 1/2 cup "scooper".  Use a spatula to scrape eggs that run back to edges. And cook a few minutes on each side.

 

Flip.

 

Here are the ingredients for the sauce:

 

Add a little chicken broth, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, and cornstarch in saucepan over heat until it clears.
