Equipment

  • Knife & cutting board
  • Mixing bowl
  • Round-bottomed wok or pan
  • spatula

Ingredients

  • oil, as needed for shallow frying (enough to coat the pan generously)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 large eggs
  • 100 g ground pork, use pork with a bit of fat for best flavor
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • ½ tbsp fish sauce

Instructions

  • Mix everything. In a bowl, whisk the eggs with fish sauce and oyster sauce. Add the ground pork and garlic, then mix until well combined.
  • Heat the oil. Add enough oil to a wok or pan to coat the bottom generously. Heat over medium-high until hot and shimmering.
  • Cook the omelette. Pour the mixture into the center of the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds so it sets and puffs slightly.
  • Flip and finish. Flip the omelette and cook the other side until golden brown and the pork is fully cooked through.
  • Drain and serve. Lift the omelette and let excess oil drip off. Serve hot with rice and a dipping sauce.
