Rooftop Prince – Omurice – Omelette Rice
Recipe Ingredients:
- 1/2 medium onion
- 1 scallion
- Oil for pan frying
- 1 small carrot
- 4 eggs
- 113g meat of your choice – beef, pork, chicken or shrimp
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 servings of cooked rice
- 1-1/2 tablespoon ketchup
- Salt and pepper
Recipe Instructions:
- Prepare the onion, scallion, carrot and meat by finely chopping them
- Pour 2 tablespoons of Tsuru Sunflower Cooking Oil into a large non-stick frying pan and heat it over medium-high heat.
- Add the onion, scallion, carrot and meat to the pan. Then, stir fry until the onion turns soft and the meat is cooked through. Stir in 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the rice. Stir well till clumped rice is broken and all ingredients are well combined. Add 1-1/2 tablespoon of ketchup and salt and pepper to taste, and continue to stir until the ketchup is evenly incorporated into the fried rice. Transfer to a plate if using the same pan for the egg.
- Crack and beat 2 eggs in a bowl with a fork. Stir in a pinch of salt. Heat a lightly oiled small non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Add the egg mixture to the pan and swirl it around to cover the pan.
- When the bottom is set but the top is still runny, turn off the heat and add on serving of the fried rice in the middle of the egg omelette.
- Using a spatula, fold both sides of the omelette over the rice. Push the whole omurice to the side of the pan.
- Once that is done, flip it onto a plate if desired. You can also shape the omurice by hand using aluminium foil or a paper towel. Repeat the last 3 steps for another serving.
- Drizzle some ketchup on top and tuck in!
