Korean Rice Omelette
A tasty Korean-inspired omelette filled with flavorful rice and veggies, seasoned with gochujang for a spicy kick.
Ingredients
- 6 large Eggs
- 1.5 cups, cooled Cooked Rice
- 3/4 cup, chopped, squeezed to remove excess liquid Kimchi
- 3, thinly sliced Green Onions
- 1.5 tbsp Soy Sauce
- 1.5 tbsp, or to taste Gochujang (Korean Chili Paste)
- 2 tsp Sesame Oil
- 3 tbsp, divided Vegetable Oil
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 tsp, for garnish Sesame Seeds
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix cooked rice with kimchi, half of the green onions, soy sauce, gochujang, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Ensure kimchi is well-drained to prevent a soggy omelette.
- In a separate bowl, whisk eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Heat 1.5 tbsp of vegetable oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
- Pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet and cook until the edges are set but the center is still slightly runny.
- Spoon half of the rice mixture onto one half of the omelette and gently fold the other half over. Press lightly to seal.
- Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the filling is heated through and the omelette is golden brown. Flip carefully if needed.
- Repeat with the remaining vegetable oil, egg, and rice mixtures.
- Garnish with remaining green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot.
