Ingredients

Asian omelettes
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) peanut oil
  • 8 shiitake or button mushrooms, sliced
  • 10 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 2 cup (160g) bean sprouts
  • 4 green onions, finely sliced

  • crusty bread, to serve

Method

Asian omelettes
  • 1
    Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok on high. Stir-fry mushrooms for 2 minutes, until soft. Remove and set aside. Lightly whisk eggs and fish sauce in a bowl.
  • 2
    Heat 2 teaspoons of oil in a wok on high and pour in one-quarter of egg mixture. Reduce heat to medium and, using a wooden or heatproof plastic spatula, loosen edges so uncooked mixture takes its place to cook. Cook for 2 minutes, until underneath is golden and top is almost set.
  • 3
    Pour off any excess oil and place one-quarter of sprouts, green onion and mushroom in centre. Fold over, cook for another 30 seconds then slide onto a plate. Keep warm. Repeat with remaining oil, egg and filling to make another 3 omelettes. Drizzle with a little oyster sauce and serve with crusty bread.
