1/4 pound lean pork
1/2 pound shrimp
1 stalk scallion
1 or 2 slice fresh ginger root
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons sherry
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons oils
4 eggs
2 tablespoons oils

1. Mince pork. Shell and devein shrimp if large, cut in two.

2. Mince scallion and ginger root then combine with cornstarch, cold water, sherry, soy sauce and salt. Add to pork and shrimp, and toss to coat.

3. Heat oil. Add pork and shrimp and stir-fry until pork begins to brown and shrimp turn pinkish (2 to 3 minutes). Remove from pan.

4. Beat eggs in a bowl then stir in pork and shrimp.

5. Heat remaining oil. Add egg mixture and cook until done, as eggs begin to set, draw them with a fork or spatula away from the edges of the pan and toward the center. (Do not overcook: eggs are best when semi-solid or partly set.) Serve at once.
