Egg foo young is easy to make and it is very healthy. You can add different protein and vegetables in it. Really nice flavor for such simple recipe. When I was in primary school, my mom used to make this often for my breakfast. It takes less than 10 minutes and it is so delicious. I hope you give it a try.

*LIST OF INGREDIENTS (SERVES 3-4)*
*FOR THE EGG MIXTURE*
5 eggs 5个鸡蛋
4 ounces [113 grams] of pre-cooked ground pork 4盎司猪肉末
4 ounces [113 grams] of peeled shrimp 4盎司虾仁
1/2 cup of carrot 1/2杯萝卜
1/3 cup of Chinese leeks 1/3杯韭菜
1/3 cup of Chinese chives 1/3杯韭黄
1/3 cup of cabbage 1/3杯包菜
1/4 cup of freshly chopped hot chili
1 tbsp of soy sauce [Pearl River Bridge Natural Brewed Light Soy Sauce: geni.us/wABlLXf]
2 tsp of oyster sauce [Lee Kum Kee premium oyster sauce: geni.us/pQiOjK]
1/2 tsp of black pepper
Salt to taste [I use about 1/4 tsp]
*FOR THE SAUCE*
1 tbsp of oyster sauce
1 tbsp of soy sauce
1 tsp of sugar
1 tbsp of corn flour
1/2 tsp of white pepper
1 cup of water or chicken broth (Homemade chicken broth video link: • Homemade Chicken Stock... )
*HOW TO MAKE EEG FOO YOUNG*
Cut cabbage, carrot into thin shreds. Cut Chinese leeks and Chinse chives into short strips. Chop some fresh hot chilies
Roughly cut the shrimp into small pieces. Pre cooked the ground pork. Beat 5 eggs.
Mix every thing in a big bowl, and add all the seasoning, which are 1 tbsp of soy sauce, 2 tsp of oyster sauce, 1/2 tsp of black pepper, salt to taste. I use about 1/4 salt.
Turn the heat to high and heat up your wok for about 10 seconds. Add 1 tbsp of vegetable oil. Then turn the heat to low because the egg is very easy to burn.
Take about 1/2 cup of the egg mixture. Carefully put that in. Fry this on low heat for 1-2 minutes each side or until both sides are golden brown.
Because my wok is round bottom so I can only do one at a time. If you are using a big frying pan, you might be able to fry many at the same time.
Next, we are making the gravy. In a small sauce pot, add about 1 tbsp of oyster sauce, 2 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tsp of sugar, 1 tbsp of corn flour, 1/2 tsp of white pepper and 1 cup of water. You can use chicken broth if you have it.
Give that a mix and we will put this on the stove. Cook it on medium heat.
If you see it start bubbling, turn the heat to low. Keep stirring it.
Once you see the sauce becoming thick. Turn off the heat and pour the sauce on the egg foo young.

*Quick Tip* for those crunched for time or if you just don't want to be stuck over a hot stove: you can throw the whole thing on a cookie sheet spread out all the fillings and bake it for 10-12 mins, then use a pizza cutter to divide it for food prepping save some time. Then all you have to do is make the sauce as you need it. :)
smart!!! theres 6 of us, & we eat 2, but the older kids eat 3, so 15 patties. great tip! thanks!!!
I think might have to try this cookie sheet hack!
Thanks
This is an awesome tip.
The "baking sheet" alternative, is what I was forced to try,.... because the frying pan/wok method NEVER worked for me. My egg mixture always fell apart when I ladled it into the hot oiled pan.... and I could never form the patties, to flip them over. Unless you can get the pan super-hot (like the professionals)..., and which you can't do on Teflon non-stick pans, you'll never get those solidly-formed patties.
Made this for dinner tonight. Used scallions, mushrooms, kale, and bean sprouts. When I put the mixture in the pan I thought it was going to be a disaster because all the egg went to the bottom, exposing all the filling. But after flipping it over, it actually came out perfect in the end. For the gravy I added 1 TBS of oyster sauce to brown gravy powder and mixed it rather thin by using more water than called for. The whole thing turned out delicious.
Tomorrow's dinner will be your fried rice recipe.

I love it!!! I'm a Egg foo young addict lol...😋😋 I always have my egg foo young with white rice and a side bowl of wonton soup ☺️
I was raised on EFY at 10 as a Black America young male, me and my brothers.
My mom took us every other two weeks from our house as a single mother.
Never forgot.....
The gravy....
Still love it and my family.
Extremely, hard to find and in taste.
Yep, me too. But we ate it for dinner not breakfast.
@@benitaesq_ EFY, anytime is always the best time deliciously, speaking.
Good eating, my sister.
@@rel2relrel600 Deliciously speaking…cute statement 🤗
@@benitaesq_ I don't play...
what a gorgeous smile you have, it gladdens this old mans heart, thank you.
Agreed.
She make me smile as well.
She's definitely a beautiful and healthy look lady. The food looks wonderful too!
Wait till the CCP takesover the world, you can enjoy smile like this all the time.
@@jeannytse2654 Really??
Your face really lights up when you reminisce on your mom’s way of preparing it. Sounds like there was a lot of love in this dish!
Mandy‼️ I just made my first egg Foo Yung aaaaaaand IT'S SOOOOOO good!!! I'm so proud of myself! Thanks for your simple recipe and alternative ingredient ideas! Mine was filled with finely minced white mushrooms, finely sliced scallion, diced carrots, finely sliced celery, leftover pork chop, and about 6 large wild shrimps. Soooooo pleased!
Sounds delicious 😋
I made it exactly how she made it.... it was absolutely delish! It’s now a staple in our cooking usuals, the whole family loved
I substituted bean sprouts for the cabbage. It was phenomenal.
@@mattnelson4387 I def will try with bean sprout that extra crunch must have made it phenomenal
I made this last night. I used bok choy, carrots, shitaki mushrooms, scallions and beans sprouts. YUMMY! My mom kept saying she was full and every time I looked at her, she was taking more on her plate! Great recipe, thanks so much for sharing. I will definitely be checking out more of your recipes!
I made this was perfect. I didn't have all your ingredients so I used green onion, onion, bean sprouts, carrots, water chestnuts & bamboo shoots. I didn't have corn flour so I used arrowroot for the thicker in the gravy. I will never buy egg foo yung again! This taster 100% better. Thank you so much for sharing! New subscriber!
Thank you for the substitute list!
Li Li hair girl
You described my feelings exactly. Just so damned good. I had carrots, green and white onion, leeks and a bag of the Taylor Farms Asian cabbage salad. I also threw in some minced ginger. Worked brilliantly. I fried in a small amt of veg oil and equal part of sesame oil. This is so going in my rotation!
BY THE WAY, CORN FLOUR IS JUST CORNSTARCH
@@ShirlEllen depends where
Li Li hair girl I used the corn I ate from previous day and pooped it in toilet picked it off my poop to use again gives a delightful taste.
What I loved most about this video is how "traditional" it felt. She mentioned her Mom several times. Loved that!
Last Saturday my grandkids were over for the afternoon. WE all got together and made the egg fu young. I cou.d not fry it up fast enough. The were stuffed by 2PM and went directly to sleep. They raved that they could make something themselves that tasted soooooo good. Thank you a ton.
My wife and I made it tonight. It was so good. Thank you for your recipe.
OMG...this was awesome, I missed Chinese food as all the restaurants closed in my area a few weeks after Covid-19 started... this was so good I was dancing around my kitchen... Thank you
It reminds me of an omelette 😊🌺
@@sk8ercaligirl It's delicious!
@Play It Again it looks yummy!! 😋😁
@@sk8ercaligirl Exactly! Instead of a... a... "Spanish omelet," this is a "Cantonese Chinese omelet." Sooo many delicious ways to raise the bar on an omelet (or "omelette," if you prefer the U.K. spelling!). Made me hungry just watching. 😊
@@sk8ercaligirl it was so good: I don't eat meat and used tofu and so much flavour it was brilliant. Cheers! Good one. I liked this version because of the shredded veggies made everything faster and easier.
I learned how to make this in my home economics class back in high school. I lost the recipe many years ago and never replaced it. I came across your recipe and found it to be very easy and looked so delicious. Thank you for putting this out. I did subscribe!
I know you made this video a long time ago, but just wanted you to know we used the basics from your video and the sauce, my husband said it was the best egg foo young he ever had!
Is cornflower the same as corn starch
My husband and I have always loved Egg Foo Young. I never thought I could make it like the restaurants do. Until I found your recipe. Omgoodness, it turned out soooo good. Thank you so much for teaching me how to cook Egg Foo Young. My husband said it was the best he's had. Again thank you for sharing your knowledge.
My husband and I just LOVE your programs!! Easy recipes, simple and clear instruction, a short story about your experience with the food -it couldn’t be better! Keep up the good work. Thank you so much!
First I absolutely LOVE how you refer to your Mom's recipe and memories of her making it for you ❣️ Thank you Mom❣️ I can't wait to try this ❣️ Love from Vancouver BC Canada ❣️ Very grateful here❣️
Sorry to say, even her mom will fool her with those so called Chinese food which you will afraid to order in China. How about some pu pu platter ? I know because I 'm a Chinese.
I did it!!!! Egg Foo Young has been my go to favorite at Chinese restaurants.With the pandemic, I rarely go out so do I miss it. I made this last night. It took me much longer than 10 minutes but next time I will order vegetables already chopped. My 17 year old grandson is an honest food critic. He lovedd it! My heart is content. Thank you very much.
OMG that looks good, I have not had Egg Foo Young in a very long time, I think I will cook some tomorrow.
This is one of my favorite meals, Chile Relleno, and omelets. God bless the little hens! We owe them a lot.
Love them EGGS 🥚 💫🙌🏽
Try making tortilla de patata. You’ll love it, from Spain. My ancestral cuisine. Check out “Spain on a fork”.
I really enjoyed this video. I love egg foo young. Here in the US, we love our sauces! I’ll eat with or without sauce. Yum! Can’t wait to try this.
Egg Foo Young is my all-time favorite Chinese dish!
Thank you, my grand kids now demand Egg Foo Young from me every time they come over for a visit. I have them help me make it and they enjoy the simple cooking method. Your channel is just great. Thank you so much
My mother used to make this often. We were very happy to have it because she would surprise us with a different meat option each time. Sometime we had bean sprouts or water chest nuts or hobo. It was sooooo good.
I took Chinese cooking classes from a well known Chinese chef as well as from a woman from China. All dishes were made as they were meant to be, not Americanized. This dish was one of the many we made and your version is spot on. Absolutely delicious! You are delightful.
I would definitely make this. She makes it look so easy
Made these this morning for breakfast for my daughter and I. They were wonderful. We ate them the way you said you did as a child, without the sauce. We loved them and so healthy. Can't wait to try more of your wonderful recipes!
Thanks for sharing this. I made this recipe my own and you're right, it's delicious!
I just had some egg with chives today I didn’t know egg foo young was so easy to make thank you so much I can’t wait for the next recipe
OMG, my fiancé and I just made this for dinner tonight (we used bok choy instead of cabbage) AND OMG, it came out perfect! I can't believe how easy it was. Thank you for sharing the recipe and the story of your mom making this for you. New subscriber here!

Honestly, you get Two Thumbs Up - most American-Chinese restaurants here in the San Gabriel Valley, CA won't make Egg Foo Young - it is considered 'peasant food;' it is beneath them to make it. HOWEVER, It IS My Favorite Dish Ever... I loved this as a child and still love it today - when I can find it good. There was only a few places that I recalled it ever tasting good while growing up. But it is becoming harder to find today; when they will make it, it doesn't have the right sauce or gravy - it's usually dark in color; tasting more like soy sauce than rich and savory. Your gravy looks incredible, and I will add your recipe to my list and try it out very soon. Much Thanks for the tutorial - Cheers
you make it look doable. i enjoy your site very much.
Can we make love just 1 time?
Than we can have ths egg foo yong in the morning for breakfast
There is a restaurant a couple of blocks down the street from me that makes delicious egg foo young. I don't order it with any protein though.
Thank you so much for this recipe. I'm going to make it this week and see how it comes out. I have a large Paella pan - kind of a mix between skillet & wok.
Almost no one makes it here and the one place I could go and they would make it special for me closed. Perfect timing as I've been waiting some so much. Thank you again.
I made your egg four young, with the sauce. It was my first dish ever cooking in my new walk turned out beautifully and very yummy. You make it simple to follow along with you while you are cooking. Thank you. I look forward for trying more recipes.

I love shrimp egg foo young, will be making these real soon. Thanks for sharing :) :) :)
Thank you!! This looks so good and healthy and I am always looking for new food ideas now that I can't eat gluten, dairy, etc due to autoimmune disease.
I am subscribing with the hope you have more recipes like this.
Thank you so very much for sharing your mom's recipe of egg foo young patties with others. You made making the patties very simply and easy to understand how to cook. I grew up on these patties as dinner or lunch from a Chinese Restaurant. It was an all time favorite to eat left overs for breakfast. I know when I can't hold anything down on my stomach that these patties agree with me. Thank you for helping me understand how to make egg fog young patties in a easy and simple way on my own. Thank you
Thank you so much for showing how to do this! It is my favourite food, and now I can make it at home! ☺️
Thank you for the recipe, been waiting for this :)
It was so nice to hear how to make this wonderful dish, especially as your love for your mom comes through, thank you!
There's a Chinese restaurant in my hometown everyone loves them and their food my dad's a vegetarian he would usually order a vegetable egg foo yong I have memories as a baby eating just the rice and sauce that was my favorite :-) I can't wait to try this out and make it for him
I grew up in Southern California in the 60s. My mother worked in a Chinese restaurant and we grew up on this food. I love it! Thank you for sharing this recipe.
You have a very peaceful style of delivery that is clear and easy to follow. Thank you so much for this great video presentation!
Yes! Exactly! I didn't really realise why I liked her delivery so much until you said "Peaceful". So apt, well commented!
Why Bobby Maxell I do believe you Mr. Johnny Randall done hit the nail on the head with that one. You good old boys got a good point there. Sort of puts it all in perspective now you mention it.
Yes i feel her peace too
We have made this recipe twice now.
Really easy to make and wow it's a hit with all the family. Thank you

I just made this egg foo young. You are right!!! It was the best I have ever had in my 59 years of life. Better than any good Chinese place I've been to also.
Thank You for showing me how EASY this was to make :) My Tummy is full to the brim.
Look delicious! I am definitely going to try this morning for breakfast! Thank you for sharing the recipe.
Thank you. I love Egg Foo Young
conservativetothecor I love egg poo poo too

Yolie Hines MY FAVORITE
Yolie Hines do you? Niiiiice
I followed your recipes and made this last night. The ingredients are similar to your fried egg roll recipe so this is perfect. My family loves it. My wife wanted to eat more but she was already full. Thank you. You are doing a great service to so many. Thank you again!
Made it tonight, it was absolutely wonderful! Thank you for this delicious recipe.
Watched this already but I enjoy her happy cooking style so I'm watching again. 👍
Thank you so much for this easy recipe! I just attempted this dish for the second time and it was so much better and faster. I grew up in NYC and now live in Texas. The Chinese food here is few and far between and so overpriced. Not to mention, I get tired of paying $20 for a dish that is around $7 in NYC. It's actually my favorite Chinese food dish and now I'm on my way to perfecting it for my tastes. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU☺☺☺😃
Now it's way cheaper too and I know it tastes better now.
I am absolutely going to make this.
Thank you, you’re so adorable.
I've learned so much for you.. Thank you so very much. One of my favorite dishes..
I just found your channel this morning, and made your egg drop soup for my Husband and he loved it, I am going to try Egg foo young tomorrow, I think he is falling in love with me all over again... lol Thank You 😋
I just made it. It is excellent.
Honestly I don't think he stopped loving you. Maybe it reminds him why he loves you all over again.
I have never known any well fed man to be unhappy. Never.
Tracy TLC congratulations!
Thank you for creating this tutorial. This is, by far, my favorite Chinese dish! Very enjoyable just watching and listening to the process!
Amazing, and Easy to make. 감사합니다.
I'd forgotten how much I like egg foo young - used to order it often eating out, but never knew gravy was American addition, nor did I consider attempting my own version...until now! A filling dish: easy to prepare, adaptable, nutritious, complete w/step-by-step directions - I'll be adding these ingredients to my next market-list. Thanx for this yummy tutorial!
When I order take out , my egg foo young always has bean sprouts , I think . You are so sweet and your video was easy to watch . Thank you .
❤My pleasure
Mung bean sprouts are common in American Chinese, but of the more traditional Chinese I have had, sprouts are only an option......
Side note....I love bean sprouts in my egg foo yung also 😉
Thank you so much, egg foo young is my favorite.
Made this following the recipe almost exactly (used slightly different veggies).
It came out SOOOO good!
The brown gravy took the dish to the next level.
5 stars!!!!!
This dish is my all time favorite!!! I usually order it when we get take out. My mom and Dad would order it for me when I was little and we lived in Chicago. Thank you for this recipe!! I can't wait to make it for my family!!!!
This is one of my favorite dishes, ever since I was young.
🍱 Thanks for sharing your time and recipes with your viewers ! I enjoy your channel very much !
🌲 👍👍 🌲
I made this and it’s so yummy 😋 🤤 !! Thank you for your amazing and yet simple egg foo young recipe 🥰. I worked at a Chinese restaurant in my younger years and this is one of my favorite dishes😍.
I have made this recipe 3 times now and it is delicious! Each time I made it a little different, but it always comes out great! I love your videos! Thanks so much!
love the video, your happy presentation really makes these a joy to watch :)
True.
You are certainly a delight to watch and learn from this was one of my favorite dishes growing up and I thank you for sharing this recipe with us
I cooked the egg foo young and it was delicious. Thank you for the recipe. I could not wait to try it. All the recipes I have tried from you have been GOOD!!! Thank You!!
Tried this today and it was perfect!! Thank you!
I just made this today for lunch. Amazing. I used shrimp, snow peas, carrots, onion and cabbage. Even though it's not authentic, I loved it with the sauce drizzled over it.
Thanks for sharing the result with me. So nice to hear that you enjoyed it
Interesting. I've never had a sweet sauce with egg foo young. The places I go usually serve it with a more salty/savory dark gravy.
@Hiram Dominguez Jr. "Nothing sweet about the sauce" is untrue. I don't know why you're being so defensive. The heat from the white pepper comes to the front, but there most certainly is a mild sweetness from the sugar.
Chill, everyone. Not worth getting overheated about. I remember a salty sauce with egg foo young, even though the last time I TRIED to eat it (I HATED it!!) was when I was a kid. This recipe looks like something I'd eat, although probably w/o the shrimp. And I'm wondering why ground pork in oil when it's normally rather greasy??
@@bophreyhumgart2953 Ground pork is not greasy at all. It is pretty lean and would completely stick to the pan without the oil.
That is my favorite. I have to drive to get it…..the local Chinese makes it sweet and I can’t stand it. I have been eating the savory for 50 years.
My favorite Asian cooking channel. I have learned so much and must say your instructionals are excellent. You don't cut corners and your attention to detail shows through with the end results. Thank you, your efforts are appreciated.
Definitely will try....thank you!
This looks delicious! Will make it tomorrow. You have a beautiful personality, thanks for your recipes.
Believe it or not, I've never actually had Egg Foo Young. This looks super simple, I think I might give it a try!
Thank you so much! Can’t wait to try this.
Your recipes and presentation are absolutely wonderful! Your instruction is so clear, and I particularly like that in some of them, you go into the science behind how the ingredients interact.
I'm making this tomorrow! Thank you very much you are adorable!
What a darling, sweet young lady you are. When I was young, the grocery stores used to have Egg Foo Yong kits that I could make. But I haven't seen those for a very long time. I love the dish, so now I can make my own! Thank you! Hugs to you!
Susie Arviso . Chung King brand. My mom used to buy it. It was yummy.
Her smile and enthusiasm is contagious!..
I was just telling my daughter-in-law about those egg foo young kits!! I miss them
@@WindyBurns Me too!
If you live in the USA you can still get egg food young in a box at winco foods also safeway
It looks like an excellent Egg Foo Young recipe.
Egg Foo Yung is my favorite, yet i seem to forget. And i thought it was super complicated, now i know i can make this easy. Yay!
I like this one. It uses less oil compared to other videos I've seen.
Thank you! Looks great!
Thankyou for the recipe, Egg Foo Young is my favorite Chinese dish. Now I finally have a recipe & can make it myself!!! From AZ USA!!
thank you for another yummy dish
i so look forward to recieving your recipes every wed morning always makes my day
Made this tonight and my family loved it. I had to change a few of the ingredients because I didn’t have all that are in the recipe and I served it without the sauce. We have no leftovers! 😄 Loved the recipe.
I've always wanted to know how to make the sauce! This was incredibly easy! THANK YOU!!! I LOVE egg foo young, my childhood favorite too!
Just made and ate this for breakfast this morning. Tasted great! Always wondered how to make the sauce. I used a microwave for the sauce and it was easy, simple and tasty. I added Chinese wine in the cooking process. Thanks!
I love your videos. They are so clear and concise. This looks delicious and will try it for sure.
Wow' I'm going to have to try this'. Thank you'
OMG Yummy' I used the pork +
1 carrot chopped skin on (electric)
1 baby portabella mushrooms chopped (electric)
1 handful of scallions sliced
1/2 (Optional or less, Hot! ) orange/red tiny chili pepper fresh minced
1/4 cup Jasmine rice
Serve: Jelly Toast gluten free or Rice
For me' better as Dinner, too spicy for my morning.
Wow! I can't wait to make this. What a fantastic tutorial, you explained everything perfectly. I bet it's going to taste totally different to what I'm guessing it will and be surprisingly and incredibly delicious-- this always happens when I cook these deceptively simple looking dishes. Thank you so much! It's time to eat more savoury, hearty breakfasts and stop with the toast and coffee, yaaaahhrrrr! 💪
Looks delicious.. I've loved Egg Foo Young since I was a kid!
I'm definitely making this! I've never had Egg Foo Young, this looks like a less grandiose Japanese Okonomiyaki but just a good. Also essentially no carbs so it is Keto friendly. Thanks!
I made this tonight and it was so amazing! Thank you for sharing your recipe and technique. I stayed pretty close to your recipe but for my veggies I added some fresh bean sprouts and cilantro. And used green onion in lieu of Chinese leeks. And I used a tsp of sambal instead of fresh chilies. So light and wonderful and completely better than any egg foo young I’ve ever had. Thanks again. And by the way, love your videos. You’re completely adorable and fun! 👍
Looks absolutely delicious. This is also a favorite of mine. Glad I found this recipe. Thank you 🙂🙂
Looks so yummy! I love egg foo young..thank you for the recipe.
I was surprised to see no corn starch being added to the eggs. Looks soooooo good!
Very nice, easy recipe. love the way you explain it.
thank you, great job!!
Dear lord...I think I could eat this every day. Thanks for the great recipe!
Thank you ! That was very simple. My little twins will love that. 🌞
