    Can substitute tamari for soy sauce; oyster sauce for vegetarian stir-fry sauce; mirin, dry white wine, or dry sherry for Shaoxing rice wine; and cauliflower, baby bok choy, or gai larn for broccoli.

    Nice but simple. Not as mind blowing as other simple recipes in this book. Blanched the broc and sauteed the onions & garlic before adding them and would do so again. Was very lovely with/needed spicy smashed cucumbers with black vinegar and chili crisp.

    We really enjoyed this dish. I would cut the broccoli smaller the next time and maybe add one extra egg. I cut the recipe for the omelet in half for two people, but made the full amount of gravy. I served it with brown rice.

    This was a nice comforting meal with well balanced flavours. I had a difficult time flipping the omelette due to the egg to vegetables ratio. Think I would do more egg next time. The gravy is nice with it.
