[Hong Kong-style Family Recipe] Fried Eggs with Choy Fong | Edited by Cooking Dad

🥚🥒 Caifu Scrambled Eggs - Hong Kong-style home-cooked delicious rice king

Editor's Preface

"Scrambled Eggs with Vegetables" is a popular back-to-school dinner dish for kids. The salty, crispy dried radish and smooth, fragrant eggs create a delicious, savory and sweet flavor. Stir-frying with the perfect balance creates a fluffy, yet not dry, egg-like texture. Our editor breaks down the details of marinating the vegetables, sautéing, and scrambling the eggs to help you recreate the flavors of home without any mistakes!

Ingredients preparation

  • 3-4 eggs

  • 30-50g dried radish

  • A pinch of chopped green onions (optional)

  • appropriate amount of oil

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar

  • A pinch of white pepper

Detailed steps

🥒 1. Vegetable pre-processing

  • Soak the choy sum in warm water for 15-20 minutes, rinsing several times to reduce the saltiness and remove impurities.

  • Remove from the heat and dice or chop. If you want it to be crispier, don’t chop it too finely.

  • Use kitchen paper to absorb the moisture so that it will be more fragrant and crispy when fried.

🍳 2. Stir-fry the cilantro

  • Add a little oil to a wok and sauté chopped cilantro (you can add a little scallion whites) over medium heat until slightly golden brown and fragrant (if it is dry, there will be no pickled smell).

🥚 3. Beat the eggs

  • Beat the eggs with salt, sugar, white pepper and chopped green onions. You can add 1 tablespoon of water or milk to make the eggs smoother.

  • Editor’s tip: Beat the eggs to incorporate more air, which will make the pan-fried buns fluffier.

🍳 4. Scrambled Egg Combination

  • After sautéing the cilantro, keep the heat at medium and pour in the egg mixture. Do not stir it too quickly. Wait until the bottom is set before stirring and turning it over slowly.

  • If you want a thicker texture, you can fry it into an omelet shape and fry both sides until golden brown; if you want a scrambled egg feel, you can spread it out lightly.

🥢 5. Turn off the heat and serve

  • Turn to low heat and turn off the heat immediately when the center of the egg remains slightly moist. The egg will continue to cook.

  • Serve on a plate and garnish with chopped green onions, pepper or a little chili powder for a more appealing look!

Editor's Tips

  • If the vegetable soup is too salty, remember to soak it for a while. If it is too bland, add more vegetable soup.

  • If you like thicker omelets, you can cut them into larger pieces. If you cut them into smaller pieces, the omelets will be more fragrant.

  • Add onions, cilantro, or minced pork to create a new flavor.

  • The pan should be hot enough so that the eggs will set immediately when you put them in, without having to over-fry them.

  • The best way to eat it is with white porridge or rice, which is versatile, filling and economical!

Eating experience 😋
