Telur Dadar (Indonesian-Style Omelette)
Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 2 scallions, finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (optional)
- A pinch of salt
- A pinch of mushroom or chicken bouillon powder (optional)
- 1 tablespoon margarine or cooking oil
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until well beaten. Add a pinch of salt and, if desired, a pinch of mushroom or chicken bouillon powder for added flavor. Mix in the finely sliced scallions. If you prefer a slightly thicker texture, incorporate the optional all-purpose flour and whisk until the mixture is smooth and evenly combined.
-
Cook the Omelette: Heat the margarine or cooking oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the margarine has melted or the oil is hot, pour in the egg mixture. Allow it to cook undisturbed until the bottom is set and lightly browned.
-
Finish and Serve: Gently flip the omelette to cook the other side, if desired, or cook until the top is fully set and slightly golden. Once cooked to your preference, remove the omelette from the skillet and transfer it to a plate.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Slice the omelette into wedges and serve hot. It pairs wonderfully with a side of steamed rice or as a filling addition to any meal.
