I tried out a lot of recipes for Egg Foo Young, but they were too rich for me. So I made a light and simple version.

If you cook the egg too much, it won't get puffy and creamy. Keep in mind that the egg will continue cooking in residual heat, so adjust the cooking time.
You can use imitation crab sticks or canned tuna instead of crab meat. Adding bamboo shoots will make it even more authentic! Recipe by Keyua
