    ingredients)
    **Use toasted walnuts or almonds, chopped
    In a large saucepan, cook asparagus, carrots and green
    onions in a small amount of boiling, lightly salted water
    for 7-9 minutes until crisp-tender; drain well. Meanwhile
    for the sauce, stir together sweet-sour sauce, pineappple or
    orange juice and grated ginger root (or 1/8 teaspoon ground
    ginger) Set aside.
    For omelets, combine eggs and water in a small bowl. Use
    fork to beat until combined but not frothy. In an 8-10 inch
    skillet with flared sides, heat 1 teaspoon of the oil until
    a drop of water sizzles. Lift and tilt pan to coat all
    sides of skillet. Add 1/2 cup of egg mixture and cook over
    medium heat. As eggs set, run a spatula around the edge of
    the skillet; lift eggs and let uncooked portion flow
    underneath. When eggs are set but still shiny, transfer to
    a warm plate, cover with plastic wrap. Repeat with

    fanning vegetables to edge of omelets. Fold each omelet
    over vegetables; fold again. Top with additional sauce and
    sprinkle with nuts.
