Instructions
Make Adobo Fried Rice:
- Heat a large pan or wok on medium-high heat, then add a little oil, then minced garlic. Saute for a few seconds, or until soft and fragrant.
- Add the chopped adobo & its sauce, saute for a couple of minutes, or until meat is heated through.
- Toss in the rice, combine with meat, then spread across the pan to toast for a few seconds, tossing occasionally. Once well combined and heated through. If there isn’t enough sauce, you can add a splash of light soy sauce along edges of the pan to create a char. Make sure to taste the fried rice before adding more salt so it won’t be too salty. Season with fresh cracked pepper if needed.
- Turn off heat, garnish with most of the green onions (save some to garnish the omelettes), & set aside adobo fried rice.
Make Omelettes:
- Heat a small pan on medium heat with a little oil. Add enough beaten egg to the pan to create a thin even layer. Swirl the pan around to cover any gaps & fully coat the pan in an even layer. Cook for a few seconds, up to a minute, or until the egg about 80% cooked. The edges should be set & the center is still a little wet. The residual heat will finish cooking the eggs.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, add about ¾-1 cup of adobo fried rice to the center in a log shape. Use a rubber spatula to loosen the edges of the egg from the pan, then fold the eggs over the fried rice (see photos in blog post above).
- Turn off the heat and very carefully, place a plate over the pan, then keeping your hand firmly on the plate, very quickly & confidently (you got this!) flip the pan and plate at the same time to reveal the omelette on the plate.
- Garnish the omelette with more green onions (if you’re feeling fancy) & enjoy!
