Thai Stuffed Omelet

Thai cuisine is a fusion of influences from China, India and Vietnam, creating a unique balance of sweet, sour and spicy flavors. Thai food has become widely popular around the world, especially for its street food culture. One of the dishes that you can easily make at home is a stuffed omelet, which can be enjoyed for breakfast or dinner. It uses simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen. Here is how to make a Thai stuffed omelet.

Ingredients:

- 4 oz ground turkey, chicken or pork

- 1 clove garlic, minced

- 2 eggs, beaten

- 2 tbsp oil

The fillings:

- 1 tbsp diced onion

- 1 tbsp sliced green onion

- 1 tbsp chopped celery

- 1 tbsp grated carrot

- 5 cherry tomatoes, halved

- 2 button mushrooms, sliced

Sauce ingredients:

- 1 tsp fish sauce

- 2 tsp soy sauce

- 1/2 tsp salt

- 1 tsp sugar

- 1/4 cup tomato sauce

 Directions:

 1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and fry the garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

2. Add the ground meat and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spatula, about 10 minutes.

3. Add half of the sauce and all of the filling ingredients, except for the green onion. Stir well and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a plate and keep warm.

4. Wipe the skillet clean and heat some more oil over medium heat. Pour in the beaten eggs and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Cook until set, about 5 minutes.

5. Spoon the filling mixture over half of the egg pancake and sprinkle with green onion. Fold the other half over to cover the filling and drizzle with the remaining sauce. Cook for another minute and slide onto a serving plate.

6. Enjoy your Thai stuffed omelet with some steamed rice or bread.
