Ingredients: - 4 large eggs - 1/2 cup cooked chicken, shrimp, ham, or a combination of these proteins, diced - 1/2 cup bean sprouts - 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions - 1/4 cup finely chopped bell peppers (any color) - 1/4 cup finely chopped mushrooms - 2 tablespoons soy sauce - 1 tablespoon oyster sauce - 1 teaspoon sesame oil - Salt and pepper, to taste - Cooking oil for frying

3. Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add a little cooking oil to coat the surface.

4. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the egg mixture and pour it onto the skillet, shaping it into a round patty. You can make multiple patties at once depending on the size of your skillet.
