Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 2 medium shallots
- 1 clove garlic
- 2 small green chilies
- 2 stalks scallions (green onions)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon white pepper
- 2 tablespoons coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
Begin by finely slicing the shallots, garlic, green chilies, and scallions. Set these aside.
Crack the eggs into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the salt, white pepper, and coconut milk. Whisk the mixture well until it becomes slightly frothy.
Add the sliced shallots, garlic, green chilies, and scallions into the egg mixture. Stir to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, pour the egg mixture into the pan, ensuring it spreads evenly across the surface.
Cook the omelette for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the top is mostly set.
Carefully flip the omelette using a spatula and cook the other side for another 2 to 3 minutes until it is fully cooked and golden.
Remove the omelette from the pan and let it rest for a minute before slicing it into wedges or squares.
Serve the Telur Dadar warm with steamed rice or as a side dish to complement your main meal.
