Step-By-Step Instructions:

  1. Add the cooking spray and canola oil to a non-stick sauté pan over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, zucchini, and onion. Sauté until the mushrooms are dry and the onions turn clear, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the bean sprouts. Sauté 2-3 more minutes. Set aside to cool.

  2. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg substitute and egg together. Whisk in the flour and then stir in the vegetable mixture and salt (optional). Mix well.

  3. Over medium-high heat, re-spray nonstick sauté pan with cooking spray and pour the batter by heaping 1/2 cup to form patties. Cook well on both sides until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the patties from the pan and set aside.

  4. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, low- or no-calorie sweetener, soy sauce, and chicken broth. Mix well. Add this mixture to the hot pan and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes to make a gravy.

  5. Pour the gravy over patties and serve hot.

Interesting recipe

I thought this was pretty good although a little time consuming. The patties were flavorful and indeed tasted like Egg Foo Yung. But, I had trouble making “patties”. When I scooped the batter into the pan, the veggies landed in the pan and the egg all ran out. I had to push the egg back toward the patty and flip them several times to ensure that the inside was fully cooked. There was way too much sauce and it had almost no flavor and never thickened enough. I will not make this again.
No, I don’t recommend
