Not a fan of egg foo yung i guess, or maybe its just this recipe. not really sure cause i never had it before till now. I ended up squirting ketchup all over it and eating it like i would my eggs. It is very easy to shape them into pancakes. All you have to do it laddle about 1/3cup of the mixture slowly into the pan and with your spatula bring the edges towards the middle of the mixture, shaping it into a circle. Does that make sense? I know- im horrible at explaining. But i would think its common sense. Anyways, wont be making this version again but may attempt a different recipe.

This had a good flavor but the eggs/batter ran all across the pan and made one giant pancake. Seems like it should have been thicker.

I didn't make the sauce but the egg foo yung was really good. I was trying to re-creat my dad's but couldn't. (Never thought to call and ask) but this is just as good. I will be using this again and probably make it for my dad! LOL

This was good! I agree the mushroom sauce was a tad salty and I think I would of liked it thickened with flour instead of corn starch better: to add a little more flavor and probably help with the saltiness. I doubled the pancake part of the recipe, and added bits of pork to half of the recipe. Great way to use up a small amout of leftover meat! This was very quick and easy... unlike the sides I served. So I made the pancakes up and covered with foil and place in a 225 degree oven, while I made a veggie stir-fry and fried rice to go with. I can't always go to my favorite oriental restaurant when I am craving Egg Foo Yung, and this was a good substitute. Thank you, so much, for sharing!

This is so good! Very simple to make and delicious. I made mine a bit different due to lack of proper ingredients, but I got the idea. I used spinach instead of Bean Sprouts, and made a gravy out of dry mushroom soup mix. I also used sunflower oil instead of peanut. Nevertheless, great recipe!

I think the dish was good but I did not have peanut oil and used vegetable oil instead. The mushroom sauce was very good and easy to prepare.

I had a crazy craving for Egg Foo Yung, just like I used to eat as a kid at my favorite Chinese food spot. I made a few changes to this recipe based on what I had on hand...no bean sprouts, but instead I added some diced zucchini and carrots, a little shallot, and some chinese sausage. I cooked it all just a little bit in some peanut oil, drained it on a paper towel, and then added it to the egg mixture as directed. The sauce was PERFECT just as it was. This satisfied my craving...but with this recipe in my stash, I'm sure it will be back sooner than later! Thank you!

This wasn't bad, it just needs a bit of tweaking. The sauce was a bit too salty so we are going to reduce the soy sauce. Also, we will add another vegetable to the egg mixture. Maybe water chestnuts or peas. Just something to give it a bit more flavor.

Good! I had a lot of trouble getting my pancakes to resemble pancakes, but I think it had to do with how clumsy I am more than the recipe. I doubled the recipe, added thinly sliced celery to the pancakes, and added the soy a little at a time to the sauce (also added a splash of sherry). Overall, very good. Thanks!

The omelette part was definitely better than those I've had at several Chinese restaurants. The only thing I did differently was to throw in some diced Chinese sausage. The gravy was a bit on the salty side, but definitely edible. All in all, this was a quick and easy meal. Thanks!

We really enjoyed this dish. The egg pancakes were very good, and the mushroom sauce would have been fantastic had it not been so salty. I think next time I will use 1/2 soy sauce and 1/2 water. I didn't have fresh mushrooms so I used canned straw mushrooms (the kind with black caps) and 4 dried shiitake mushrooms (after soaking in water). What wonderful flavor!

Excellent and so simple! One of my favorite Chinese dishes. My mother made this for us when we were kids. Her's was good, but this one's better. Next time, I'll add diced Chinese red pork, chicken or shrimp. Definately a keeper. Thanks for sharing!

I'm rating the Egg Foo Yung patties because I did my sauce differently. In addition to the other veggies, I also added spinach and they were incredible. So the sauce would taste like what I'm used to from our local restaurant, I added some of the canola oil I used to cook the omelets to the pan and made a roux. I then added chicken broth, soy sauce, Gravy Master and seasonings. The result was a nice rich gravy that helped make this dish even more amazing than it already is. Thanks a bunch Dakota!

Awesome. The only thing I changed was cooking eggs in non-stick pan with a bit of cooking spray to reduce calories. I will definitely make this again & I think I'll try adding shrimp or chicken next time.

This dish was exceptional! I followed the recipe exactly and found it easy to make and the mushroom sauce on top of the 'pancakes' was a perfect accompanyment. Served it up with Chinese Chicken Salad III. Will do it again
