A plain chili omelet is a little too ordinary. This version adds egg tofu (the silky tofu sold in tubes at Asian markets) for a thicker, softer, more tender omelet, with a dash of soy sauce for savory depth. It is one of the simplest healthy dishes you can make.

Ingredients

  • 2 eggs
  • 2 tubes egg tofu (or about 200 g / 7 oz silken tofu)
  • 3 to 4 fresh chilies, more or less to taste
  • Soy sauce or Thai seasoning sauce
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat until light and frothy.
  2. Cut the egg tofu into thick or thin slices, as you prefer, and add to the eggs.
  3. Thinly slice the chilies and add them, then season with soy sauce or seasoning sauce.
  4. Heat a skillet and add the oil. When it is hot, pour in the egg mixture. Cook until set on the bottom, flip, and cook until both sides are golden. Serve with steaming hot rice.
