  • Pour the whisked eggs on top of the rice paper. Ideally, you want the rice paper to be evenly covered, but don't worry if it's not perfect. You can do this by tilting the pan to spread the egg mixture, or by using the back of a spoon.

Notes

  • Rice paper: Rice Paper is readily available in supermarkets and Asian specialty stores. It’s cheap to buy and has a long shelf life making it a great pantry staple.
  • Oil: You can use your favourite oil or butter, just a little is needed to grease the pan.
  • Water: When I make an omelette I like to add a splash of water to the whisked eggs I find this gives a lighter fluffier omelette
  • Fillings: Let your imagination run wild. I'll share 4 of my family's favourite filling combinations.
