Simple Chinese Omelette - anyone can do this

Chinese Omelette
Why buy omelette's from the Chinese restaurant when you can make it as good if not better than the bought one and in less time than it takes to place the order and pick it up...

  • Thinly slice a handful of spring onions (save some for decoration, some garlic, ginger and chilli... fresh for all of these is best if you have it.
  • Make a dressing for the top from 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil... just stir to combine. 
  • Crack six eggs in a bowl and gently whisk together with a couple of tablespoon of light soy sauce.
  • In a wok heat some peanut or vegetable oil as these oils can take a higher heat than olive oil... add your chopped onions, garlic, ginger and chilli and fry these off quickly to release their flavours...  after a couple of minutes pour in the egg mix and as it sets on the bottom gently flip with a spatula allowing more of the liquid egg mix to hit the bottom until all the egg mix has gently set.
Simple Chinese Omelette served with steamed green veggies
  • Serve with steamed green veggies of your choice (quartered boc choy is my favourite), drizzled the sauce over the omelette with sprinkle with the remaining spring onions.
