Ingredients
• 6 large eggs
• 2 egg whites
• 1/2 cup diced carrots
• 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
• 1/2 cup sliced green onions
• 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil, for cooking
Instructions
- Whisk the Eggs: In a large bowl, whisk together the whole eggs and egg whites until well combined. This will ensure a light and fluffy texture for your Egg Foo Young.
- Add the Vegetables: Gently fold in the diced carrots, bell peppers, and sliced green onions. The vegetables should be evenly distributed throughout the egg mixture.
- Season the Mixture: Drizzle in the soy sauce and sesame oil, then sprinkle the white pepper over the top. Gently fold the seasonings into the egg and vegetable mixture until everything is well incorporated.
- Cook the Patties: Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Scoop heaping spoonfuls of the egg mixture and gently place them in the hot pan, forming individual patties. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
- Drain and Serve: Use a slotted spatula to transfer the cooked Egg Foo Young patties to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Serve hot, garnished with additional green onions or your favorite toppings.
