Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 bell peppers, sliced or diced (I used red and green)
  • 1 onion, sliced or diced
  • ~ 6 medium mushrooms, sliced or diced
  • 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
  • 100 g (~ 1 cup) beansprouts
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • Black pepper
  • To serve (optional): fresh coriander (cilantro), sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan or wok, and add all the vegetables. Stir fry over a medium heat for 5 minutes or so, until fairly soft but still with a bit of bite.
  • Remove the pan from the heat, and add the eggs, soy sauce, and plenty of black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the vegetables are well coated in the egg.
  • Cook over a medium-low heat without stirring for a couple of minutes, then gently begin to turn over large spoonfuls. Ideally you don't want to end up with scrambled eggs (though it's okay if parts end up like that!) - try to keep the egg mixture in larger chunks that you can turn over with a spoon. Continue until the egg is fully cooked.
  • Serve the egg fu yung topped with fresh coriander and sesame seeds if desired.
