    I love this dish..but I love food!

    Egg Foo Young

    4 tablespoons canola oil
    1/4 cup yellow onion, chopped
    2 cups shredded cabbage (I mix finely chopped kimchee half and half with the cabbage)
    6 eggs
    1 tablespoon soy sauce
    2 cloves fresh garlic
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    1/4 cup sliced bamboo shoots if allowed or you can use bean sprouts
    1/2 cup cooked diced meat of some kind you can use any leftovers like chicken, pork, beef, fish, whatever you like!
    2 tablespoons each green onion tops and cilantro, sliced, for garnish

    pour the two tbls of the oil into a large nonstick skillet... and cook onions and cabbage over- medium high heat just until tender. Remove from heat, drain excess liquid, and reserve.
    Whisk the eggs in a bowl and mix in soy sauce, spices, drained cabbage mixture, and bamboo shoots.

    Using a non-stick pan over medium-high heat, add the other 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and heat. Ladle about 4 ounces of the cabbage mixture into the hot pan, as you would for pancakes, and sprinkle the small bits of meat evenly on top of each. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until edges start to brown and when jiggled, it slides in the pan. Flip and cook another 2 to 3 minutes until cooked through. Garnish with the green onions and cilantro

    Interesting recipe. I have always used Sherry in egg-foo young to approximate the chinese wine usually used, do you find it just as good without it?

        I just use a tablespoon or so, maybe a bit more, and since it is dry sherry, the carb content is negligible anyway.

            Are you calling Napa Cabbage Kimchee?

              napa vs kimchee

              No Desert I use napa mixed with kimchee even though the kimchee is napa...does that make any sense?
