This particular recipe for an omelette with stir-fried shiitake mushrooms and rice is not only delicious but also low-fat, making it a healthy choice for any meal of the day.

Ingredients:

2 eggs
100g
1 tbsp canola oil
16g
3/4 cup scallions
90g
1 tbsp ginger root
16g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1 cup mushrooms
230g
2 tbsp oyster sauce
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat them until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.
- Chop the scallions, grate the ginger, and mince the garlic.
- Slice the mushrooms into thin pieces.
2. Cook the Mushrooms:
- Heat half of the canola oil (about 1/2 tablespoon) in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the ginger and garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, until they are tender and any released moisture has evaporated.
- Stir in the oyster sauce, ensuring that the mushrooms are evenly coated. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Transfer the mushroom mixture to a bowl and set aside. Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
3. Cook the Omelette:
- Add the remaining canola oil (about 1/2 tablespoon) to the cleaned skillet and heat over medium heat.
- Pour the beaten eggs into the skillet, spreading them evenly across the surface.
- Cook the eggs without stirring for about 2-3 minutes, until the bottom is set but the top is still slightly runny.
4. Add the Mushroom Mixture:
- Spoon the cooked mushroom mixture onto one half of the omelette.
- Sprinkle the chopped scallions over the mushrooms.
5. Fold and Serve:
- Carefully fold the other half of the omelette over the mushroom and scallion filling.
- Slide the omelette onto a plate.
6. Serve:
- Serve the omelette warm, with a side of cooked rice if desired.

Tips:

- Make sure to whisk the eggs thoroughly to achieve a fluffy omelette.

- Cook the eggs on medium-low heat to prevent them from browning too quickly and to ensure they cook evenly.

- Use fresh shiitake mushrooms for a richer flavor and better texture.

- Add a splash of water or milk to the eggs for an even fluffier omelette.

- Cook the garlic and ginger first to release their aromas before adding the mushrooms and scallions.

- Feel free to add other vegetables, such as bell peppers or spinach, to enhance the nutritional value of the omelette.

- If you're watching your sodium intake, consider using a low-sodium version of oyster sauce or reducing the amount used.
