CHINESE SHRIMP OMELETTE

Steps:

• Prepare sauce by adding oyster sauce to chicken broth then whisk.
• Heat wok or skillet until extremely hot.
• Add 1 tablespoon of oil & stir fry shrimp, onion & green onion until just cooked then remove.
• Add 2 tablespoons oil to wok & when hot, add the beaten eggs.
• Return shrimp & onions to wok.
• Stir in the shrimp once so they become part of the omlette & then let them sit, continue to break holes in the egg between the shrimp to allow raw egg to contact the wok.
• Jiggle, poke & shimmy the omlette to prevent sticking until mostly cooked.
• Flip or turn omlette & finish cooking on other side for a few second then turn out onto warm plate & cover with foil.
• Return wok to heat.
• Add cornstarch to sauce & whisk then add to wok.
• Boil sauce until thick then pour over omlette.
• A "slight" burn on the egg tastes great with the sauce but not too much.
