1/2 |
cup |

(1 serving) |
 |
1. In a mixing bowl, beat together 3 whole eggs.
|
|
2. Add spring onions, shallots, fish sauce and ground white
pepper.
|
|
3. Beat this mixture well and add ground pork and beat the
mixture again to evenly distribute the pork in the egg.
|
|
4. Set a frying pan or wok on the stove ; add vegetable oil
and heat the oil up until almost smoking.
|
5.
Pour the egg mixture into the hot pan and tilt the pan to spread
the mixture evenly over the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to medium
and fry the egg until golden brown, then turn to cook the other
side. The fat from the pork will seep out from the omelet to give
the egg a golden brown color and a wonderful smell. Cook this omelet
longer than normal to allow the pork to cook through. Serve piping
hot with Thai chilisauce (sri-racha).
