Bak Kwa Onion French Omelette ~ 肉干洋葱煎蛋卷

This is my first attempt at making a French omelette.  A French omelette is rolled up into an oval or cylindrical shape before serving.  I've surfed the internet for many versions of how some chefs whipped up this omelette with ease.  I managed to pick up some tips here and there and came up with my Bak Kwa Onion French Omelette.




Bak Kwa Onion French Omelette  ~  肉干洋葱煎蛋卷   
Ingredients
  • 3 eggs + 1/2 tsp water
  • 30 gm bak kwa bits
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • Salt and Pepper
Method
  1. Using a fork, whisk up the eggs with 1/2 tsp water.  (Adding water will help to break up the protein and fluff up the eggs a little).  Whisk till no egg whites are visible.  Add in a bit of salt and a dash of pepper.
  2. Heat up some oil and lightly pan-fry the onions and bak kwa bits.
  3. Dish up and set aside.
  4. Heat up a non-stick pan on medium heat, lightly pour the beaten eggs onto the pan.  Stir the eggs in circular movement and shake the mixture to cook evenly on low heat.
  5. Lightly pat the eggs and when the top surface of eggs is thickened and no visible liquid of egg is left, pour the onion filling on one side of the omelette and slowly fold and roll it up.  
  6. Then flip the roll onto a serving plate.
  7. Serve immediately.

Herbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Gao

H erbal Jelly ~ Gui Ling Ga o literally translated means 'Tortoise Jelly' is one of my family's favourite desserts.  It's much more economical to prepare this at home for you'll need to fork out between Rm 9 to Rm 11 for a bowl of this cooling dessert in any of those herbal tea outlets.  This soothing jelly, served chilled, is supposed to be able to help reduce our body heat, helps to get rid of toxins and is believed to be good for the skin thus culminating a healthier complexion.

Braised Pork Belly with Mui Choy ~ 梅菜焖五花肉

Mui Choy is preserved mustard greens and there are two types, one is salty while the other is sweet.  There are many ways of cooking mui choy with pork belly.  Instead of braising, you can steam it with minced pork but here I am using only the sweet mui choy and I braised the pork belly with it.  This is a flavourful dish and you can serve it with plain rice or plain porridge.
