Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2 minutes until it begins to soften.
Ca. 2 min.
- 3
Add the cubed chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through.

- 4
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and cook for another minute.
Ca. 1 min.
- 5
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, using a spatula to break apart any clumps.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Using day-old, cold rice prevents it from getting mushy.
- 6
Pour in the ketchup for the rice and the soy sauce, then stir-fry until the rice is evenly colored and heated through.
Ca. 2 min.
- 7
Season the rice with its designated salt and the black pepper, then remove the skillet from the heat and divide the rice into two portions.
Ca. 1 min.
- 8
In a small bowl, whisk together half of the eggs with half of the milk and a pinch of the omelette salt.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Don't over-whisk; you just want to break up the yolks and combine everything.

Melt half of the butter in a separate, smaller non-stick skillet (about 20-24cm) over medium heat.
Ca. 1 min.
- 10
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are about 80% set but still soft on top.
Ca. 2 min.

Spoon one portion of the fried rice onto one side of the omelette in the pan.
Ca. 1 min.
- 12
Fold the empty side of the omelette over the rice and carefully slide or flip it onto a plate, seam-side down.

Kokkens note: Tilting the pan towards the plate can help it slide off smoothly.
