Categories     Vegetable

Time 58m

Yield 4 6-inch diameter patties, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

7 eggs
1 (14 ounce) can chop suey vegetables (I use La Choy)
1 (14 ounce) can fancy mixed-chinese vegetables (LaChoy)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon white pepper
oil based cooking spray

Steps:

  • Lightly beat the eggs with the soy sauce and pepper in a medium size bowl.
  • Drain the Chop Suey vegetables, then pick out the bamboo shoots, celery, and water chestnuts and dice into ¼ inch pieces or smaller.
  • Add all of the Chop Suey vegetables to the bowl and mix.
  • Heat an 6-inch skillet (I prefer a cast iron skillet) to a medium high heat, spray the bottom and sides with a vegetable oil spray. If you prefer a thinner pancake, use a 10-inch skillet.
  • Pour one fourth of the mixture (about 3/4 cup) into the skillet and cook 6-8 minutes or until bottom is browned (if using a 10-inch skillet, cook for 4 to 5 minutes).
  • Carefully flip and cook 5-6 minutes or until bottom is browned (if using a 10-inch skillet, cook for 2 to 3 minutes).
  • Respray the skillet with the cooking oil and repeat the cooking steps for the rest of the mixture.

1 1/2 cups chicken brodo or stock
1 cup white basmati rice
2 tablespoons chopped chives
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
1/4 cup edible flowers, optional, for garnish
4 tablespoons high-temperature oil
10 to 12 asparagus, trimmed of tough ends and sliced on a bias into bite-size pieces or 1 small bunch broccolini, halved lengthwise for larger pieces
2 carrots or 4 baby carrots, scrubbed and cut into julienne or matchsticks
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced on a long bias

About 1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds
1 cup chicken brodo or stock
2 teaspoons cornstarch plus 2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons Shaoxing or fino sherry
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon ground Sichuan or white pepper

Steps:

  • For the rice (if making): Bring chicken brodo to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stir in rice and bring to a simmer. Cover with a tight-fitting lid, reduce heat to medium low and cook until rice is tender and fluffy, 15 to 18 minutes. Keep warm in the covered saucepan until ready to serve. Top with chives, cilantro and edible flowers, if using, right before serving.
  • For the pork: Heat a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, add oil and brown pork and crumble. Add salt, pepper, sugar, soy, garlic, ginger and fennel pollen and toss 2 minutes. Add rice wine or sherry and let it absorb, then transfer to a bowl. Wipe skillet and return to heat.

Season with salt and pepper and cook to soften, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk up 3 eggs and pour over vegetables, tilting the pan to fill in the holes.
