Sweet Preseved Radish (Choy Pou) Omelet

My mum used to cook this whenever we had porridge because the saltiness and sweetness from the preserved radish goes really well with plain porridge. I love this omelet though if you eat it on its own, it can be very salty. We had this for lunch sometime back together with stir fried spinach with carrot and chicken curry.

Ingredients:

Eggs

Preserved Sweet Radish (cut into small pieces)

Pepper

Oil

Method:

1. Heat a little oil and stir fry the radish.

2. Beat eggs with a little pepper.

3. Pour egg mixture onto the radish. Let the egg cook till it sets.

4. Turn the egg and cook the other side.

5. Dish up when both sides are cooked.

Family Dinner

Hubby and I had a satisfying dinner tonight and it was fun because this time hubby cooked 2 dishes! Today, he cooked stir fried siew pak choy and an onion omelet. Both are yummy. The vegetable dish is the same as the one he did before but this time we used siew pak choy instead of yau mak. Hehe...it's for him to practise so everything is the same except the vege used.
