Making mixed rice after rice is cooked
- Mince the onion.
- Use a pan and turn to medium heat. Add oil (I use sesame oil) and add minced onion. Stir and cook until the onion turns a little clear.
- Add ground chicken. Cook until the color changes.
- Add butter and mix through.
- After the butter melts and is well mixed, add ketchup, sugar, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well.
- After stirring, add milk and cook for 3-5 minutes.
- Add the cooked rice, salt, and black pepper and stir well.
- Move it to a bowl from the pan.
Omelette
- Use a medium size bowl. Add eggs, salt, black pepper, sugar and milk. Mix well until the yellow color is equal.
- Please split the beaten eggs into 2 bowls. You can simply prepare two bowls. This means for 2 people.
- Use a medium size pan and turn the heat to medium-low. Add a little butter. Add 2/3 of the beaten eggs from the bowl.
- Quickly swirl around with chopsticks like you make scrambled eggs.
- Collect and shape into a circle, then add the rest of the beaten egg from the bowl to the pan to fill up the gaps. Do not mix.
- Cook for 1 minute with medium low heat and turn off. You can still see a little bit of runny egg.
Let's eat!
- Place the mixed rice first, then add the omelette on top by just sliding the egg on top of the rice.
- Let's serve! Add ketchup or cheese on top of Omurice if you want!
