What You'll Need

8 eggs
1 (4-ounce) can mushroom stems and pieces, drained and coarsely chopped
1/2 pound fresh bean sprouts, coarsely chopped
1/4 pound thick-sliced deli roast pork, coarsely chopped
3 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup peanut oil
1 (10.5-ounce) can chicken gravy
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon ground ginger

What to Do

In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add mushrooms, bean sprouts, pork, scallions, salt, and pepper; mix well and set aside.
In a large nonstick skillet over high heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil until hot. Spoon three 1/4-cup measures of egg mixture into skillet to form pancakes and cook about 1 minute per side or until golden. Remove to serving platter and cover to keep warm.
Repeat until all egg mixture has been cooked, adding more oil to skillet as needed.
In medium skillet over medium heat, combine gravy, soy sauce, and ginger; mix well for 5 minutes or until heated through. Serve pancakes topped with gravy.

I make this a lot. My quick cheats are using canned chinese vegetables and adding my own sauteed onions, peppers and mushrooms. I mix the vegies and, when cool, add about a tbs of flour to help them bind to the eggs. An even quicker cheat is using the canned "chow mein" product that comes in two cans vegies and gray separate. turns out yummy!

Sounds yummy! Comment about baking it as a frittata is a great idea!
