Edit
My woman rear didn't build chai poh omelette (菜脯卵) really often, because chai poh wasn't a regular exceptional inwards her pantry. So, I can't country I receive got a fabulous recipe which was passed on from my mother, as well as which I volition transcend on to my daughter. This is a recipe I came upward amongst for friends who mean value that chai poh omelette is de rigueur when they come upward to my house for Teochew porridge.
My recipe has what I similar inwards a French omelette – fluffy, creamy as well as non likewise oily. It also has what I similar inwards a Chinese omelette – fragrant as well as aromatic because it's fried till golden brown.
To build the omelette I like, I add together ane tablespoon of milk to each egg. The milk makes the omelette really forgiving, allowing it to endure good browned whilst keeping the texture creamy as well as fluffy amongst minimal oil.
The omelette must endure fairly thick thus that it doesn't dry out out, as well as the estrus mustn't endure excessive. I get-go amongst high heat, reducing to medium, as well as thus low, every bit the omelette cooks. To croak along the saltiness inwards check, I rinse the chai poh mince iii times as well as add together around sugar. Lastly, a niggling flake of garlic is e'er good.
Anything
To me, a fluffy chai poh omelette amongst a bowl of steaming porridge is ane of the greatest pleasures of life.
