De bereidingswijze

Stap voor stap

1
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Ongeveer 2 min
2
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 2 minutes until it begins to soften.
Ongeveer 2 min
3
Add the cubed chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through.
Ongeveer 5 min
4
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and cook for another minute.
Ongeveer 1 min
5
Add the cooked rice to the skillet, using a spatula to break apart any clumps.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: 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.
Ongeveer 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.
Ongeveer 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.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: Don't over-whisk; you just want to break up the yolks and combine everything.
9
Melt half of the butter in a separate, smaller non-stick skillet (about 20-24cm) over medium heat.
Ongeveer 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.
Ongeveer 2 min
11
Spoon one portion of the fried rice onto one side of the omelette in the pan.
Ongeveer 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.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: Tilting the pan towards the plate can help it slide off smoothly.
13
Repeat the process with the remaining eggs, milk, salt, butter, and rice to make the second omurice.
Ongeveer 5 min
14
Garnish the top of each omurice with the garnish ketchup and a sprinkle of optional chopped parsley before serving hot.
