Chinese Shrimp Omelette - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    12 medium shrimp
    4 eggs, beaten
    1/4 onion, sliced
    1 green onion, sliced
    1/3 cup chicken broth
    1 1/2 teaspoons oyster sauce
    3 tablespoons peanut oil
    1 teaspoon cornstarch
Preparation
    Prepare sauce by adding oyster sauce to chicken broth then whisk.
    Heat wok or skillet until extremely hot.
    Add 1 tablespoon of oil & stir fry shrimp, onion & green onion until just cooked then remove.
    Add 2 tablespoons oil to wok & when hot, add the beaten eggs.
    Return shrimp & onions to wok.
    Stir in the shrimp once so they become part of the omlette & then let them sit, continue to break holes in the egg between the shrimp to allow raw egg to contact the wok.
    Jiggle, poke & shimmy the omlette to prevent sticking until mostly cooked.
    Flip or turn omlette & finish cooking on other side for a few second then turn out onto warm plate & cover with foil.
    Return wok to heat.
    Add cornstarch to sauce & whisk then add to wok.
    Boil sauce until thick then pour over omlette.
    A \"slight\" burn on the egg tastes great with the sauce but not too much.
