How to Make Sesame Vegie Omelet

  1. Heat 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a skillet or wok over medium heat. Add 1 cup sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (capsicum), 1/2 cup snow peas, and 1/4 cup chopped onion. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, or until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  2. Add 1/2 cup bean sprouts and stir for 30 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside, keeping warm in a low oven (around 200°F/93°C).
  3. In a bowl, whisk together 3 large eggs, 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, and 2 tablespoons water.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Pour in the egg mixture and tilt the pan to evenly coat the bottom. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is still slightly wet.
  6. Transfer the omelet to a plate. Spoon the warm vegetables onto one half of the omelet.
  7. Fold the other half of the omelet over the filling.
  8. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (or to taste). Garnish with fresh coriander (cilantro) and a pinch of chili flakes (optional).
  9. Serve immediately with jasmine or green tea.
