NOTES:
The Brown Sauce that frequently accompanies Beef with Broccoli works well with this dish.
To coax more flavor out of the vegetables, blanch or stir-fry before adding to the egg mixture, even if the recipe doesn't call for it.
Jo-Ann has a suggestion for a quick and easy egg/rice pancake:
"I mix whatever amount of rice is needed with enough egg to make it the consistency of a pancake. Add some thinly sliced scallions and a little light soy sauce. Fry big spoonfuls of the mixture in some oil, flattening them out as they are placed in the pan. That's it. If the rice is allowed to soak up the egg a bit, then the pancake has less egg runoff.”
