Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 3 stalks green onion
- 1 medium carrot
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 1 small red bell pepper
- 0.25 cup cilantro
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk them until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper to season.
Finely chop the green onion and red bell pepper. Grate the carrot and set the vegetables aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour half of the beaten eggs into the skillet, spreading it evenly to create a thin omelet. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until set, then flip and cook for 1 more minute. Remove the omelet and repeat with the rest of the eggs.
Let the omelets cool slightly, then roll them up and slice them into thin strips. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the green onion, carrot, bean sprouts, red bell pepper, and cilantro.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, white vinegar, honey, and a pinch of salt and black pepper to make the dressing.
Add the sliced omelet strips to the salad bowl and pour the dressing over. Toss gently to combine and ensure the dressing coats all the ingredients.
Serve the Foo Yong Salad immediately as a refreshing side dish or light main course.
