Step 1

In a bowl, beat eggs with chopped chili, garlic, fish sauce, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir in the cha om leaves or your choice of green vegetables.

Step 2

Preheat your wok or pan over medium-high heat until it’s nice and hot (this helps the egg fluff up). Add cooking oil and swirl to coat.

Step 3

Pour the egg mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly. Cook for 1 minute, then flip it over. Cook for an additional 30 seconds, then remove from the heat. Transfer the omelet to a serving plate.

Step 4

This Thai omelet is typically served with Nam Prik Kapi (Thai spicy shrimp paste dip), but if you don’t have it, you can make a simple chili fish sauce. Just combine chopped chilis with 2 tbsp of fish sauce.

Step 5

Serve the omelet with warm rice and the sauce. Feel free to try this recipe with other vegetables you have on hand. Enjoy!
