Chinese-Style Layered Omelette

• portions: 2 servings
• temps total: 15 minutes

Ingrédients

6 large eggs

Small bundle of flowering garlic chives (1.5 oz), sliced thinly (optional, see note)

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (if using table salt, use half as much)

Neutral oil, like canola or peanut, for greasing the pan

5 scallions (3 ounces; 85g), white and light-green parts only, sliced as thinly as possible

3 teaspoons soy sauce (15ml)

Steamed white rice, for serving

Instructions

In a medium mixing bowl, beat eggs along with sliced flowering garlic chives (if using) and salt until thoroughly mixed.

Place about 1 teaspoon of oil in an 8- or 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. When the pan is hot, add just enough egg mixture to coat bottom of pan, swirling to ensure complete distribution. Cook until the bottom is completely set and the top is just barely set with just a trace of runniness; slide omelette onto serving plate. Top with sprinkling of sliced scallions and 1 teaspoon (5ml) of soy sauce; if using a 10-inch skillet, use 1.5 teaspoons (7ml) soy sauce.

Repeat process with remaining egg mixture, topping each layer with sliced scallions. If using an 8-inch skillet, drizzle one of the middle layers with 1 teaspoon soy sauce and drizzle the final 1 teaspoon of soy sauce over the top. If using a 10-inch skillet, drizzle remaining 1.5 teaspoons soy sauce over top. Serve immediately with piping-hot steamed white rice.
