2 cup: Coiling chicken stock,
1 tbsp: Soy sauce,
1 tbsp: Tomato catsup,
2 tbsp: Cornstarch, dissolved in 2 Tbsp cold water
Directions:
For sauce, heat 2 Tbsp of the oil in an 8" or 10" skillet over medium
heat. Stir in mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes. Blend in the chicken
stock, catsup and soy sauce; bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in
cornstarch and water mixture into the boiling sauce. Reduce heat and
simmer sauce for 2 or 3 minutes until it is clear and thick enough to
coat a spoon lightly. Cover pan partially and keep sauce warm over
lowest possible heat. Pour 2 Tbsp of the vegetable oil into heavy 12"
skillet; heat oil until it reaches 350 degrees on a deep frying
thermometer. Combine bean sprouts with strips of onion, celery and
ham in a bowl. In another mixing bowl, beat eggs lightly and stir in
salt and pepper. Stir the bean sprout mixture into the beaten eggs.
Using a 1/4 cup ladle, cook 4 pancakes at a time in oil in skillet
over high heat. Turn pancakes with a slotted spoon after 30 seconds
and fry for another 30 seconds, or until they puff and are golden
brown. Serve at once, garnished with a scallion and accompanied by
the hot mushroom sauce. Original Source: American Cooking: The
