Telur Dadar Warteg: Indonesian Street-Style Omelette
Ingredients:
- 5 large eggs
- 1 stalk green onion, finely sliced
- Salt, to taste
- Cooking oil, for frying
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and beat them until well combined. Stir in the finely sliced green onion and add a pinch of salt, adjusting to your taste.
-
Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or frying pan, heat a generous amount of cooking oil over medium-high heat. You need enough oil to allow the omelette to float slightly while cooking.
-
Cook the Omelette: Once the oil is hot, pour a portion of the egg mixture into the skillet. Allow it to spread out into a thin layer. Cook for a few minutes until the edges begin to turn golden brown and the center is set.
-
Flip and Finish Cooking: Carefully flip the omelette to cook the other side, continuing to cook until it is golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
-
Repeat: Repeat the process with the remaining egg mixture, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
-
Serve: Serve the Telur Dadar Warteg warm as a delicious and savory addition to any meal. Enjoy it on its own or with a side of rice and sambal for an authentic Indonesian experience.
This simple yet flavorful omelette is a staple in Indonesian wartegs (street-side eateries) and makes for a perfect quick meal or snack.
