Instructions

  1. Beat the eggs with a fork or chopsticks. Add the oyster sauce, fish sauce, white pepper, sesame oil, and Shaoxing wine, then stir to mix well.
  2. Heat up a wok or skillet, then add the cooking oil.
  3. When the wok or skillet is fully heated, sauté the onion until aromatic or lightly caramelized. Add the shrimp and stir until they turn white on the surface. Pour in the beaten eggs and let the omelette set for about 20-30 seconds.
  4. Stir, toss, and flip the eggs, cooking them thoroughly. Use a spatula to break them into chunks. Add the scallions and stir to combine well. Dish out and serve immediately.

Notes

  • You may use crab meat (instead of shrimp) for this recipe. This omelet tastes even better with crab meat.
