Ingredients

• Servings: 2

• 4 add 2 tablespoons oil to wok & when hot, add the beaten eggs.
• 5 return shrimp & onions to wok.
• 6 stir in the shrimp once so they become part of the omlette & then let them sit, continue to break holes in the egg between the shrimp to allow raw egg to contact the wok.
