Steps:
- Mix cornflour and soy sauce. Then add remaining ingredients.
- Pour into a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to simmer, stirring constantly. Simmer for 1 minute until sauce thickens to thin syrup consistency. Remove from stove, set aside.
- MICROWAVE option: Microwave on high for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir very well, microwave for another 1 1/2 minutes until thickened. Mix well again.
- Place pork in a bowl, add remaining ingredients. Use fork to mix through.
- Whisk eggs in a bowl.
- Add beansprouts, green onions, pork or prawns, salt and pepper. If using pork, crumble the raw pork in with fingers (see video). Mix through.
- Heat 1/2 tbsp vegetable oil and drizzle of sesame oil in a non stick skillet over medium heat. Add a bit of garlic and quickly saute (10 seconds) and push into centre of skillet.
- Ladle in 1/4 of batter. Use spatular to push edges in to form a round(ish) shape.
- Cook until the underside is light golden (about 1 1/2 minutes) then flip and cook the other side for 1 minute. The raw meat will cook through in this time. Repeat with remaining egg to make 4 omelettes (use 2 pans if you can!).
- Slide omelette onto plate. Pour over sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions, if using.
- Serve with a side of rice and steamed vegetables of choice. Double the sauce if you want enough to pour over the rice and veggies! (Click on Servings to scale recipe up).

PULLED PORK OMELETTE (GF)
Steps:
- In a small skillet over medium heat, add the oil and onions and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add in the red bell pepper and continue to sauté for another 8-10 minutes, until the onions are golden brown and the red bell peppers are soft. Add in the pulled pork and sauté for another minute or so, until the pulled pork is heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a small bowl, beat together the eggs and milk.
- Heat a 10-inch skillet on medium-high heat. Add in the oil, swirl it around the pan, and let it heat up. When the oil is hot, gently pour in the eggs. Cook, without disturbing the egg, for about 3-5 minutes, until the top of the egg looks like it is almost set. Using a spatula carefully flip the egg "pancake" over. The trick to flipping it without the egg "pancake" breaking is to use a large spatula, make sure none of the egg is sticking to the pan, get right under the egg, and flip it in one smooth motion.
- Cook the egg "pancake" for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until it is cooked through. Remove the pan from the heat and gently slide the egg "pancake" onto a plate. Top with the pulled pork filling. If desired, fold the omelette before serving.

PULLED PORK OMELETTE RECIPE (SUPER FLUFFY)
Steps:
- Crack each of the eggs and separate the whites and the yolks into two different bowls.
- Season them up with a tad of salt and pepper and then whisk the egg yolks until smooth. Set them over to the side.
- Pull out that whisk and start on the egg whites. Whisk using a handheld mixer until it bubbles then add 1 tsp of sugar. Now, whisk until it tripled in size and developed glossy, medium peaks.
- Once those medium peaks have developed, fold in your light egg whites into the yolks.
- Take a wide and very flexible spatula and cut straight down the center of your ingredients, ensuring that it goes all the way to the bottom of the bowl.
- Scrape on the bottom of your mixing bowl, pulling towards you. Then, pull up along the side and scoop that part of the mixture up over the rest of the mixture. That is folding, in its simplest terms.
- Rotate the bowl at a quarter of a turn. Repeat the process. Once the mixture has incorporated and has no streaks, the process is all done. Resist all temptation to stir up again. Pause and provide yourself a little pat on the back for successfully folding in the kitchen.
- Heat the oil over low heat (do this while you're whisking the egg whites). Swirl the oil to coat the sides of the non-stick 8 inches pan.
- If using oil, wait until it completely coats the pan and becomes shiny. If using butter, wait until it starts foaming.
- Once the oil/butter is heated, pour the egg mixture immediately and cook to the lowest heat setting. Spread the surface to even out the eggs. Note: Whipped eggs can deflate easily, so you need to cook them asap.
- Cover with a lid, and cook for about 4 minutes until the top of the omelet has set. No poking.
- Once the omelet is set, slowly lift one side of the omelet and drop a knob of butter underneath (this is optional).
- Arrange the pulled pork on top + the toppings (remember, too much of the toppings will make the egg base rips).
- Gently, fold it in half, move it back a bit to make some space. Flip it to the sides to help lock the runny fillings in. And you're done!
- Serve the eggs and garnish with your favorite toppings.

Steps:
- Prepare the pork and shrimp: Preheat a wok over high heat until hot. Add the peanut oil and swirl to coat. Add the pork and shrimp and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce and oyster sauce; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for another minute or so. Transfer the pork and shrimp to a plate and set aside to cool. Wipe out the wok.
- Meanwhile, make the omelets: Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the cabbage, carrot, scallions, peas, bean sprouts, ginger, and the reserved pork and shrimp and stir well to combine. Do not season; salting now will make these omelets watery.
- Preheat the wok over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and one-fourth of the omelet mixture and cook, until the egg is set, about 1 minute. If needed, add a bit more of the beaten egg, pushing in the edges to make the omelet round. Flip and cook until the omelet starts to tighten and brown at the edges, 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat to make 3 more omelets, adding more oil to the wok as needed. Season the egg foo yung with salt and serve with one or both of the sauces.
- Whisk together all of the ingredients and heat in a small saucepan until simmering. Remove from the heat, cover and keep warm or let cool, then refrigerate up to 3 days. Rewarm before serving.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a simmer. Meanwhile, combine all of the ingredients except the sesame oil in a medium stainless steel bowl. Place the bowl over the simmering water in the saucepan (do not let the bowl touch the water). Whisk occasionally until the yolks set, 5 to 7 minutes. Whisk in the sesame oil. Taste and add more sugar, if desired. Cover and keep warm or let cool, then refrigerate up to 3 days. Rewarm gently before serving.

PORK OMELETTE
Grounded pork omelette is one of my favorite simple Asian dish. I made up this dish one day when I had 10 people to feed and everyone loved it. It is light and fluffy. Best to eat it with white rice and dip into Vietnamese fish sauce (nuc nam). Most of these ingredients you can find in an Asian supermarket.
