Instructions

  1. Finely slice the onion and garlic, and cut the chicken or ham into small cubes.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan, then sauté the onion, garlic and meat for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the rice, tomato sauce, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce, then stir-fry for 5 minutes, pressing down. Keep warm.
  4. Beat the eggs with the milk, salt and pepper.
  5. In a buttered nonstick pan, pour in a quarter of the eggs, stir gently and form an omelette that is still slightly runny.
  6. Place a portion of rice in the center, then roll the omelette over the rice.
  7. Flip it onto a plate and repeat with the rest. Serve with a little tomato sauce.

Variations and tips

Demi-glace sauce version. Coat the omelette with a brown sauce made with chicken stock and flour for a restaurant-style version.
