Prep Time: 5 minutes  |  Cook Time: 5 minutes  |  Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 1 serving  |  Difficulty: Easy  |  Cuisine: French

Ingredients

  • 3 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 fresh tomato, sliced
  • Fresh herbs (optional)

Instructions

  1. Crack eggs into a bowl and whisk together with salt and pepper until well combined.
  2. Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until foaming.
  3. Pour in the egg mixture and let it set for a few seconds, then gently stir with a spatula.
  4. As the eggs begin to set, tilt the pan to allow uncooked egg to flow to the edges.
  5. When the top is still slightly creamy but the bottom is set, fold the omelette in half.
  6. Transfer to a serving plate and arrange fresh tomato slices on the side.
  7. Serve immediately while hot.

Egg Fried Rice with Corn and Green Onions
Fluffy, golden fried rice studded with scrambled eggs, sweet corn, and fresh green onions—a classic Asian breakfast dish.

Prep Time: 10 minutes  |  Cook Time: 15 minutes  |  Total Time: 25 minutes
Servings: 4 servings  |  Difficulty: Easy  |  Cuisine: Chinese

Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked rice (day-old, chilled)
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt and white pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat.
  2. Pour in beaten eggs and scramble until cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. Add remaining oil, then stir-fry garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Add chilled rice, breaking up clumps, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes.
  5. Add corn kernels and stir-fry for 2 minutes until heated through.
  6. Return eggs to the wok, add soy sauce and sesame oil.
  7. Toss in most of the green onions and season with salt and pepper.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished with remaining green onions.

Tips & Notes

  • Use day-old rice for the best texture—fresh rice tends to clump
  • Keep all ingredients prepped before you start cooking, as the cooking goes quickly
  • High heat is key to achieving the characteristic slightly crispy texture
  • Don’t overmix; gently fold ingredients together to keep rice grains separate
