ASIAN OMELET RECIPES

Steps:

• Beat eggs, milk and pepper slightly; set aside. Heat oil in 8-inch nonstick skillet or omelet pan over medium-high heat. Cook remaining ingredients except soy sauce in oil, stirring frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir in soy sauce. Remove mixture from skillet; keep warm.
• Spray same skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Quickly pour about 1/2 cup of the egg mixture into skillet. Slide skillet back and forth rapidly over heat and, at the same time, quickly stir with a fork to spread eggs continuously over bottom of skillet as they thicken. Let stand over heat a few seconds to lightly brown bottom of omelet. (Do not overcook--omelet will continue to cook after folding.)
• Spoon about 1/4 cup of the rice mixture on one side of omelet. Run spatula under unfilled side of omelet; lift over rice mixture. Tilting skillet slightly, turn omelet onto plate. Repeat with remaining egg and rice mixtures.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425°. In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs with the scallions. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a 9-inch nonstick ovenproof skillet. Add the ham and cook over moderately high heat until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce and simmer for 30 seconds. Add the snow peas and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds, then add the bean sprouts and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Season with salt and pepper. Push the shrimp into the vegetables and add the eggs, spreading them evenly. Bake the omelet in the oven for about 12 minutes, or until set in the center.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce with the rice vinegar, sesame oil and chili oil. Remove the skillet from the oven, slide the omelet onto a serving plate and sprinkle with the cilantro. Cut the omelet into wedges and serve warm or at room temperature with the soy dipping sauce.
