It is a super easy dish to cook , it takes nothing but few minutes ( as long as you already have the meat ready of course )<\/p>\n<p>I remember we used to buy this quite often or mom would make it when she wanted to . And as far as i remember it was always served with red sauce , it&#8217;s the sweet and sour sauce . So tonight , i wanted to recreated this dish .. how hard could that be anyway ? My mom was always using seafood to make this egg foo young , i&#8217;ve never seen it with beef or even chicken and pork . It might be quite common , but i just never had it that way .<\/p>\n<p>This is how i made my Egg Foo Young<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/fu-yung-hai.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2372\" alt=\"fu yung hai\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/fu-yung-hai-300x199.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/fu-yung-hai-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/fu-yung-hai.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Direction :\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>3 large eggs<\/p>\n<p>1 tbsp. of water<\/p>\n<p>1\/2 &#8211; 3\/4 cup of real crab meat ( or you can use imitation but probably won&#8217;t be as good )<\/p>\n<p>salt and pepper<\/p>\n<p>Beat the eggs and the water , add the crab meat , salt and pepper .
