I made this recipe, upon my husbands request. Our family of 5 loved it! I omitted the bean sprouts(didn't have any)and the salt from both the eggs and sauce. I used ham rather than shrimp, only because I'm prego and can't have 'em. If mamma can't have 'em, nobody can have 'em!! I did add just a bit more soy sauce to gravy, as well as a bit more cornstarch. I used olive oil rather than vegetable oil. Served over rice and had the perfect meal! I'll certainly be making again. Thanks for sharing!

Yummo! It was so good. This dish takes me back to my childhood. It was my dad's favorite Chinese dish. He would love the flavor in this. I did add canned shrimp juice to my gravy. This dish did not need no added salt as recipe required. I added a tbsp of cornstarch and deleted all the oil. used nonstick pan and medium-low heat with lid. Came out great.

These were very good. Next time I will add more onion. My sauce turned out like sauce...not like gravy but it still added a nice flavor to them. The bean sprouts were good in these cuz they didn't have that really earthy flavor. I will def make these again.

These were good, they make a healthly lunch or dinner. I added a little cornstarch to the eggs as another reviewer suggested, but they still ran a little. I also added a lot of extra soy sauce to the gravy because I like it that way. I'll definitely make this again.

This was such an easy dish to prepare....I struggled a bit on forming the patties but I know that was due to the medium shrimp I used along with the fresh sliced mushrooms, but otherwise it was easy to prepare and my family loved it!

This was pretty good. I didnt have bean sprouts so I lightly steamed asparagus and cut them into small pieces, and I used sliced shitake mushrooms. For some reason I had a really hard time forming a patty. I guess that just takes practice. By preparing the shrimp and asparagus the day before, this was a very quick meal to make when I came home.

Delicious! Just like at a chinese restaurant. I split regular shrimo in half and added some kosher salt and pepper to the egg mixture. The sauce was delicious.

The egg omelet was absolutely wonderful and I thank you so much for that as this dish is one of my fav's when we order out. I just wish I could find a good thick sauce recipe, which is more like a gravy that we get from our local restuarant. Thanks Kimber!

I was looking for something new to do with shrimp and this was just right. It was easy & healthy... I just left out some of the yolks and added a few more whites. I know this is going to become a new staple. Oh yeah, did I mention it tasted great!

Simply DELICIOUS! The sauce is wonderfully flavorful and the soy sauce is not over powering the flavors as some sauces do. I left out the extra salt as I don't like super salty foods but it is still plenty salty because of the Soy Sauce and what is added to canned broth. YUMMY!!

I 'm going to rate this one actually a 3.75 :-) I think it does need some more tweaking but is a good start. I added in some more veggies and garlic and a bit of cornstarch to the egg mixture. I also used egg beaters from a carton rather than whole eggs. The eggs still do spread out to fill the whole pan, but if you wait for them to cook a little, you can smoosh/ fold the eggs into piles and make nice looking egg foo yung patties. The sauce needs a lot of seasoning help IMHO. I added some garlic and a dash of honey and liked it much better that way.

This came out soooo gooood! The mixture came out a bit watery so I added cornstarch like someone suggested and the patties came out denser and firmer. My family raved about them and the leftovers the next day was even better. Thanks so much for this recipe!
