Experience the delightful crunch and burst of flavour with our revamped Fish Roe Fusion Omelette. This dish combines the delicate sweetness of fish roe with the comforting familiarity of a fluffy omelette, infused with Asian-inspired flavours to create a culinary delight that's both simple and sophisticated.

Ingredients:

5 large eggs, beaten until frothy
1 tbsp mirin (Japanese rice wine)
1 tbsp light soy sauce
A pinch of ground black pepper
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 tbsp fish roe (tobiko or an alternative like masago)
2 tbsp chopped chives for garnish

Instructions:

1 Prep the Egg Mixture:
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, mirin, soy sauce, and black pepper until well combined.
2 Cook the Onion:
Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add onions and sauté until they are translucent and slightly golden.
3 Cook the Omelet:
Pour the egg mixture over the onions, tilting the pan to spread evenly. Cook without stirring for about 2 minutes until the edges begin to set.
4 Add Tobiko Fish Roe:
Sprinkle the fish roe evenly over the omelet. Cover the skillet, and let cook for another 2 minutes, or until the eggs are set but still slightly runny on top.
5 Finish and Serve:
Use a spatula to fold the omelette in half. Slide onto a plate, garnish with chopped chives, and serve immediately.
