*4 (250 g) eggs, beaten
*3.5 oz (100 g) lard or
vegetable oil
*1.5 t. salt, or to taste
*0.25 t. pepper
*1 t. scallions, chopped
Method:
1. Heat the oil in a wok over
low heat to about 350F
(170C), or until a piece
of scallion green sizzles
and moves around when
dropped in the oil.
2. Add the eggs and fry until
the egg solution bubbles
but has not yet begun to
brown. Add 4 c. (1 litre)
of water. Stir in the
salt and pepper.
Simmer until fragrant.
Pour the soup into a
tureen; sprinkle with the
scallions, and serve.
