Instructions
-
Prepare the Egg Mixture:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add a pinch of salt, pepper, and the chopped spring onion greens. Whisk well until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. Set aside.
-
Cook the Vegetables:
- Heat a flat skillet or wok over medium heat and add a little oil. Once the oil is hot, add the ginger and garlic. Sautรฉ them for about a minute until they soften and become aromatic.
- Add the chopped baby corn and cook for around 20 minutes, allowing it to soften and become slightly tender.
- Next, add the sliced red and green bell peppers to the pan. Sautรฉ for another 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet still crisp.
- Stir in the soy sauce, green chili sauce, and chili vinegar. Mix well to coat the vegetables with the sauces. Taste and adjust the salt if needed.
- Once the vegetables are cooked and well-seasoned, remove them from the skillet and set them aside.
-
Cook the Omelette:
- In the same skillet, add a few drops of oil (if using a non-stick pan, you may not need oil). Allow it to heat up over medium heat.
- Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, swirling it gently to ensure it spreads evenly across the surface.
- Let the egg cook for about 30 seconds or until the edges begin to set, then quickly spread the vegetable mixture over the top of the egg.
- Allow the omelette to cook for a minute or two, folding the sides in with a spatula as it solidifies. This will create a folded omelette with a delicious stuffed filling.
- If you prefer your omelette a bit firmer, you can flip it over to cook both sides.
-
Serving:
- Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate, folding it neatly to encase the vegetable stuffing.
- Serve the Asian Style Stuffed Omelette hot, alongside a refreshing smoothie or a glass of juice to complete your meal.
