Chinese Shrimp Omelette Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the pork and shrimp: Preheat a wok over high heat until hot. Add the peanut oil and swirl to coat. Add the pork and shrimp and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for another minute or so. Transfer the pork and shrimp to a plate and set aside to cool. Wipe out the wok.
• Meanwhile, make the omelets: Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the cabbage, carrot, scallions, peas, bean sprouts, ginger, and the reserved pork and shrimp and stir well to combine. Do not season; salting now will make these omelets watery.
• Preheat the wok over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and one-fourth of the omelet mixture and cook, until the egg is set, about 1 minute. If needed, add a bit more of the beaten egg, pushing in the edges to make the omelet round. Flip and cook until the omelet starts to tighten and brown at the edges, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat to make 3 more omelets, adding more oil to the wok as needed. Season the egg foo yung with salt and serve with one or both of the sauces.
• Whisk together all of the ingredients and heat in a small saucepan until simmering. Remove from the heat, cover and keep warm or let cool, then refrigerate up to 3 days. Rewarm before serving.
• Bring a medium saucepan of water to a simmer. Meanwhile, combine all of the ingredients except the sesame oil in a medium stainless steel bowl. Place the bowl over the simmering water in the saucepan (do not let the bowl touch the water). Whisk occasionally until the yolks set, 5 to 7 minutes. Whisk in the sesame oil. Taste and add more sugar, if desired. Cover and keep warm or let cool, then refrigerate up to 3 days. Rewarm gently before serving.

Steps:

• Prepare sauce by adding oyster sauce to chicken broth then whisk.
• Heat wok or skillet until extremely hot.
• Add 1 tablespoon of oil & stir fry shrimp, onion & green onion until just cooked then remove.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil to wok & when hot, add the beaten eggs.
• Return shrimp & onions to wok.
• Stir in the shrimp once so they become part of the omlette & then let them sit, continue to break holes in the egg between the shrimp to allow raw egg to contact the wok.
• Jiggle, poke & shimmy the omlette to prevent sticking until mostly cooked.
• Flip or turn omlette & finish cooking on other side for a few second then turn out onto warm plate & cover with foil.
• Return wok to heat.
• Add cornstarch to sauce & whisk then add to wok.
• Boil sauce until thick then pour over omlette.
• A "slight" burn on the egg tastes great with the sauce but not too much.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, saute the shrimp, red pepper, bacon, onion, lemon juice, jalapeno and seasonings in oil and 1 tablespoon butter for 2-3 minutes or until shrimp turn pink and vegetables are tender. Remove and keep warm., In the same skillet, melt remaining butter over medium-high heat; add eggs (mixture should set immediately at edges). As eggs set, push cooked edges toward the center, letting uncooked portion flow underneath. , When the eggs are set, spoon shrimp mixture on one side and sprinkle with cheese; fold other side over filling. Invert omelet onto a plate; cut in half. Sprinkle with parsley.
