Ingredients

Serves 4 - Makes 2 omelettes

  • 1/8 large white onion (sliced)
  • 2 tomatoes (sliced)
  • 3 bundles of green onions (sliced)
  • 1/2 lb ground pork
  • 5 eggs
  • 1/3 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tbsp MSG
  • 1 1/2 tbsp fish sauce

Procedure

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine ground pork, eggs, sugar, MSG, and fish sauce. Mix well until well combined. Set aside.

  2. In a large pan, heat over medium-high heat. Spray with cooking spray or add 2 tbsp oil. Wait until hot. Then add half your onion and half your tomatoes.

  3. Sauté onion and tomatoes until fragrant - about 1 minute. Add half the egg mixture. Lower the heat to low and allow the omelette to cook for 8 to 10 minutes (or until 80% cooked). Be careful not to burn the bottom.

  4. Flip your omelette (I use a plate to help me flip the omelette) and allow the other side to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes or until fully cooked.

  5. Repeat the steps for the second omelette.

  6. Serve this hot with a side of rice.
