    Egg Foo Yung is a classic and somewhat retro Chinese comfort food dish. This easy Asian recipe can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.  

    Egg Foo Yung is one of my favorite comfort foods and a dish my mother made regularly when I was growing up. I get cravings for this savory meal and because of its versatility and easy preparation, I eat it for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

    If you're wondering why the dish doesn't look like the traditional Chinese style pancakes, I'm still recovering from shoulder surgery. As it turns out, flipping a full size omelet shaped breakfast with the use of only one good arm is more difficult than I expected . The final dish was delicious, but looks more like an Egg Foo Yung scramble.

    I had a few Brussels sprouts in the fridge, so I threw them in, adding a wonderful crunch and delicious Brussels sprouts flavor. Some potstickers or egg rolls would be delicious served with this meal. 

    In my opinion, Egg Foo Yung is not complete without the signature savory gravy!

    The sumptuous brown gravy has a silky texture and rounds out the flavor profile of this tasty meal.

    I hope you enjoy this Egg Foo Yung recipe.
