There is no definitive recipe as such. It does tend to be a 'fridge clearing' dish, but this version was just mean. I would normally expect to find some lean pork slivers, some vegetable other than onion*, maybe carrot slivers or Chinese black fungus and certainly not just one bean sprout. The over-cooked egg is just bizarre. I've never been served anything like it. Cheapest protein, I suppose.
And it would be seasoned with soy sauce.
*Someone in that kitchen loves onions. They turn up in everything. They aren't that common in everyday cooking.
