Ingredients

  • • 2 cups cooked short-grain rice, preferably day-old
  • • 100g ham or chicken breast, diced
  • • 1/2 onion, diced
  • • 1/3 cup ketchup, plus extra for serving
  • • 3 eggs
  • • 1 tbsp milk
  • • 1 tbsp butter
  • • 1/4 tsp salt

Preparation Steps

1
Phase 1

Sauté the onion and ham in butter, then add the rice and ketchup and stir-fry until every grain is coated and glossy.

2
Phase 2

Press the ketchup rice into a neat oval mound on a serving plate.

3
Phase 3

Beat the eggs with milk and salt, then pour into an oiled pan over low heat and cook into a soft, still-moist omelet.

4
Phase 4

Slide the omelet over the rice mound so it drapes the shape completely.

5
Phase 5

Decorate with extra ketchup and serve immediately while the egg is still silky.
