Ingredients
SAUCE
  • 1 C Water
  • 1/3 C Kikkoman Soy Sauce
  • 2 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 tsp Sugar
  • 2 tsp Cornstarch
EGG FOO YOUNG
  • 2 Tbs Canola or Vegetable Oil
  • 10 - 12 Eggs
  • 1 Pkg Bean Sprouts
  • 1 1/2 C Pork, diced - see notes for other options
  • 1/2 White Onion, chopped
  • 1/4 C Kikkoman Soy Sauce
Instructions
SAUCE
  1. Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Continue stirring and boil for 1 minute. Remove from heat to cool. Sauce will thicken as it cools.

EGG FOO YOUNG
  1. Dice the pork into small pieces. You want it to cook thoroughly without burning the pancake. Reserve the oil for cooking. Put the remaining ingredients into a medium bowl. Mix briefly by hand until all of the ingredients are coated with egg. Do not over mix.

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Pour 1/2 cup of mixture into the hot skillet. Use a spatula to push the running egg up over the sides to form the pancake edge. Once the pancake is set, and the bottoms are lightly golden brown, flip it over and cook the other side.

  3. Serve immediately topped with the thickened sauce.

Recipe Notes

You can substitute chicken, or shrimp for the pork. 

Make it vegetarian by omitting the meat and adding more vegetables.

An Ostrich egg can be substituted for the chicken eggs.
