Main Ingredients
- 2 fresh eggs
- 2 dried rice paper sheets
- 0.5 Tbsp Tsuyu (Japanese dipping sauce)
- 0.5 Tbsp Fish sauce (or tuna extract)
- A pinch of Sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 Tbsp Cooking oil
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, crack 2 eggs into a bowl. Gently whisk them with a fork or whisk until smooth, avoiding too much foam. Add 0.5 Tbsp of Tsuyu and 0.5 Tbsp of fish sauce for a savory flavor, and mix well to prepare the egg mixture. Tsuyu and fish sauce help to reduce any eggy smell and enhance the overall taste.
Step 2
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add 1 Tbsp of cooking oil. Once the pan is adequately warm, reduce the heat to medium-low. Carefully pour the prepared egg mixture into the pan. Let it cook until about half-set, you’ll see the edges starting to solidify.
Step 3
When the egg is about halfway cooked, carefully place one sheet of rice paper on top of the egg. As the rice paper softens from the moisture of the egg, gently roll the egg from the edge of the pan. Using chopsticks or a spatula will make this easier.
Step 4
After rolling the egg and rice paper once, tilt the pan slightly and move the rolled omelet to the edge. Then, pour the remaining egg mixture into the pan and place another sheet of rice paper on top. As the egg starts to cook, roll it up again as before. Repeating this process will create a layered, chewy rolled omelet.
Step 5
Once the rolled omelet has taken shape, reduce the heat to low and gently roll the pan to cook all sides evenly. Be careful not to burn it, ensuring it cooks through and remains moist. The omelet is ready when the exterior is golden brown.
Step 6
Remove the finished rolled omelet from the pan and place it on a cutting board. If you slice it immediately while it’s still very hot, it might fall apart. Let it cool slightly before slicing into your desired thickness. This will ensure a neat cut without the omelet losing its shape.
Step 7
Arrange the sliced rolled omelet on a plate. If desired, drizzle a little Sriracha sauce over the top for a spicy and slightly sweet kick. Sriracha sauce helps cut through any richness and adds an interesting flavor dimension. Enjoy your delicious creation!
