Thai omelette rolls are a delicious and visually appealing dish that combines the savory flavors of fish sauce with the fresh and zesty notes of basil, spearmint, and lime juice. This dish is perfect for brunch, an appetizer, or even a light dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a well-seasoned pan, you can create these flavorful and aromatic rolls in no time.
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, crack the 6 eggs and beat them well.
- Add the fish sauce and beat again until well combined.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly grease with a bit of oil if needed.
- Pour in a thin layer of the egg mixture, just enough to coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Cook until the omelette is set but still moist in the center. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- Carefully slide the omelette onto a plate and set aside.
- Repeat until all the egg mixture is used, making multiple thin omelettes.
- In a bowl, combine the finely chopped red pepper, mung beans, basil leaves, spearmint, lime juice, and brown sugar.
- Add the finely chopped red hot chili peppers, mixing well.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. You may add more lime juice or a pinch of brown sugar to balance the flavors.
- Lay one thin omelette on a flat surface.
- Spread a portion of the filling mixture evenly over the omelette.
- Carefully roll the omelette up tightly to enclose the filling.
- Repeat with the remaining omelettes and filling.
- Slice the omelette rolls into bite-sized pieces for an attractive presentation.
- Arrange on a serving platter and garnish with additional herbs if desired.
Tips:
- Use a non-stick pan to ensure that the omelette doesn’t stick and rolls easily.
- Chop the red pepper, mung beans, basil leaves, spearmint, and red hot chili peppers finely to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the omelette.
- Adjust the amount of red hot chili peppers to suit your preferred spice level.
- Make sure the pan is at medium-low heat to prevent the eggs from browning too much or becoming rubbery.
- Roll the omelette tightly to keep all the ingredients inside and create a visually appealing presentation when sliced.
