Oh, cool, SS!

I had to delete some photos from Image Shack, for space reasons, but I think I still have one of Egg Foo Yung on my home computer. I'll see if I can post one here.

Hey, maybe serve some of Sass Muffin's Bacon Fried Rice!!

SS, I added the photos, and just found another one (I've made this a bunch of times!)

I have a recipe for oven-baked fried rice (pictured above) that I adore! I may have posted it in another thread, but I'll post it here, too.

Lee’s Oven-Fried Rice

3 small onions, roughly chopped (or one very large onion)
2 cups fresh bean sprouts
2 cups fresh snow peas, roughly chopped in about half
1 tsp brown sugar
1 small can chicken broth (14 oz)
2 cups UNCOOKED rice
¼ cup soy sauce

Garnishes:
Green onions
Scrambled eggs

Optional: cooked cubed pork or chicken, shrimp, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots

Mix together all ingredients with the rice (do not pre-cook any ingredients, except for meats, if used) in a 13 x 9 inch pan. Cover with foil and cook for one hour at 350, stirring every 15 minutes.

Mix in chopped green onions and scrambled eggs just before serving.

I order roast pork egg foo young ALL the time!! YUMMY copied

 

[QSis]

I had some leftover pork shoulder roast so made the Egg Foo Yung again.

Used too many vegs. (bean sprouts and onions) this time, so the patties kinda fella apart.

And I heated up my perfect gravy too fast - it boiled and thinned out! Never saw that happen before.

Tasted good, but definitely a FAIL!

I still would have eaten it .

looks delish - do you use arrowroot in the gravy/sauce? that will break down under high heat.

I like pork egg foo young also. But the place we Buy from changed the recipe and it stinks now.

Yet more pork loin leftovers.
