Ingredients

  • 8 large eggs
  • 2 cups bean sprouts
  • 4 stalks green onions
  • 1 cup cooked chicken, pork, or shrimp (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1.5 cups chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1 tablespoon oil or cooking spray
  • 0.25 teaspoons salt
  • 0.25 teaspoons black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with oil or cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them thoroughly until beaten. Add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper to the eggs, and mix well.

Step 3

Finely chop the green onions. Add them to the bowl along with the bean sprouts and cooked chicken, pork, or shrimp (if using). Stir the mixture until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is fully set and golden on top.

Step 5

While the casserole is baking, prepare the gravy. In a small saucepan, whisk together the cornstarch and chicken or vegetable stock until smooth. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and reaches a gravy-like consistency, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 6

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Slice into portions and serve warm with the prepared gravy drizzled over the top.

Step 7

Optional: Garnish with additional chopped green onions or a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
