Ingredients

  • 1 large egg
  • A pinch of salt
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Egg: In a small bowl, crack the egg and add a pinch of salt. Beat the egg lightly with a fork or whisk until well combined and slightly frothy.

  2. Heat the Pan: Place a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the sesame oil. Allow the oil to heat up until it shimmers and becomes aromatic.

  3. Cook the Omelet: Pour the beaten egg into the skillet, tilting the pan to spread the egg evenly. Let it cook undisturbed for a few minutes until the edges begin to set and the bottom is golden brown. Gently lift the edges with a spatula to check for doneness. Once the egg is fully cooked and no longer runny, slide it onto a plate.

  4. Serve Warm: Enjoy your sesame oil omelet immediately while it’s still warm. The rich, nutty flavor of the sesame oil adds a delightful twist to this simple and quick dish.

This recipe offers a savory, aromatic twist to your standard omelet, making it perfect for a quick breakfast or light meal.
