Preparation / Directions:
To make the sauce, dissolve cornstarch in cold water. Add soup or stock and soy sauce. Cook until clear and thickened.

Drop egg mixture into hot oil from tablespoon to make individual pancakes. Brown on both sides and remove to a hot platter to keep warm. Pour on hot sauce and serve.
