foo young
Egg-based Asian dish
Foo young (also egg foo young) is a Chinese-American dish of beaten eggs mixed with vegetables and often meat or shrimp, fried into a patty or omelet.
It's typically served with brown gravy: We ordered shrimp foo young and fried rice.
The dish evolved from Cantonese cuisine but has become a staple of American Chinese restaurant menus.
