Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked white rice
- 150 grams Chicken breast (cut into small pieces)
- 1 small Onion (finely chopped)
- 1 small Carrot (finely chopped)
- 0.25 cup Frozen peas
- 4 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Milk
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
Instructions
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, carrot, and chicken pieces to the pan and sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and the chicken is cooked through.
Stir in the frozen peas and cook for 1 minute.
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps, and stir well.
Add ketchup, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper to the rice mixture. Stir everything together until the rice is evenly coated in the sauce. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt until fully combined.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
Pour half of the egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to create a thin, even layer.
Cook the omelette for 1-2 minutes until just set but still slightly runny in the center.
Spoon half of the fried rice mixture onto one side of the omelette and carefully fold the other side over the rice. Gently slide the omuraisu onto a serving plate.
Repeat with the remaining egg mixture, butter, and fried rice to make the second serving.
Optionally, garnish with additional ketchup drizzles or chopped parsley before serving.
