Ingredients
- oil as needed to coat the bottom of your pan
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 2 large eggs
- 100 g ground pork
- 15 ml oyster sauce
- 8 ml fish sauce
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, fish sauce, oyster sauce, and ground pork until well combined.
- Pour enough oil into a wok or skillet to coat the bottom and place it over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, toss in the chopped garlic, pay attention, it’ll turn golden brown in seconds.
- At this point, pour the egg mixture into the center of the pan. Let it cook undisturbed for about 30 seconds or until one side is set, then carefully flip the omelette over to cook the other side until both are nicely browned, and the pork is cooked through.
- After cooking, let the omelette rest on a spatula over the pan for a moment to allow any excess oil to drip off. Gently press the omelette against the side of the pan to squeeze out any remaining oil before serving.
