Servings: persons

1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon distilled white vinegar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 bunch scallions
8 large eggs
1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1/4 pound sliced fresh mushrooms (preferably shiitake)

Chop scallions, separating white parts and greens.

Cook white scallion, mushrooms, sprouts, and 1/4 tsp salt in vegetable oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until any liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes.
