Omurice

Omurice

Omurice

Omurice is an omelette stuffed with fried rice. This dish originated in Japan, but has spread to other Asian cultures. This particular version is Korean.
You can use any type of protein in the fried rice such as ground pork, sliced pork, shrimp, chicken, ham, or leave it meatless. If you’d like, you can add mushrooms and bean sprouts to the rice. Make sure to use day old rice if possible. If making fresh rice, make it a little drier than usual. 
In Asian cultures, ketchup is considered an exotic condiment. If you don’t like ketchup like myself, you can use siracha to give it a little spice.
