Classic Shrimp Egg Foo Young with Savory Gravy

This restaurant-style version of Egg Foo Young features fluffy, golden-brown egg patties filled with tender shrimp and crunchy bean sprouts. The dish is completed with a signature glossy brown gravy that adds a deep, savory umami flavor to every bite.

Ingredients

6 large eggs, beaten
1 cup small cooked shrimp (or chopped raw shrimp)
1 cup fresh bean sprouts, rinsed
3 green onions, chopped
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
Vegetable oil for frying
1 cup chicken broth (for gravy)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (for gravy)
1 tablespoon oyster sauce (for gravy)
1 teaspoon sugar (for gravy)
1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (slurry)

Instructions

  1. 1

    To make the gravy, combine chicken broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer.

  2. 2

    Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens to a gravy consistency. Keep warm.

  3. 3

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with the sesame oil and a pinch of salt.

  4. 4

    Stir the shrimp, bean sprouts, and chopped green onions into the egg mixture.

  5. 5

    Heat about 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

  6. 6

    Ladle about 1/2 cup of the egg mixture into the pan to form a patty. You can cook 2-3 patties at a time depending on pan size.

  7. 7

    Fry for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then carefully flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until set.

  8. 8

    Remove patties and drain on paper towels. Repeat with remaining mixture, adding more oil to the pan if needed.

  9. 9

    Serve the egg patties hot, smothered with the prepared brown gravy.
