Ingredients

  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 spring onions, finely sliced
  • ½ x 175g pack fresh edamame beans or 100g defrosted peas
  • ½ x 150g pack cooked king prawns
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp light soy sauce
  • a handful of mixed leaves

Step by step

  1. Heat 1 teaspoon of sesame oil in a small nonstick frying pan on a medium heat. Fry half the spring onions for 2 minutes, then stir in the edamame beans and prawns and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from the pan to a plate.
  2. Heat another ½ teaspoon sesame oil in the pan. Whisk the eggs, remaining spring onions and ½ teaspoon soy sauce in a bowl then pour into the pan to make a thin omelette. Once the base is set, draw the sides into the middle with a spatula and let the raw egg run into the gap. Cook for another 2-4 minutes until set.
  3. Spoon the prawn mix into the middle and fold over. Whisk ½ teaspoon sesame oil with ½ teaspoon soy and toss with the mixed leaves. Serve on the side.
    Tip
    Bulk it up
    Make the omelette and finely slice. Fry the prawns and edamame with a pouch of cooked rice to make fried rice, and add the omelette slices at the last minute.

    Make it veggie
    Swap prawns for sliced mushrooms – cook for a few minutes longer until golden.
