| This is a quick, fun recipe for two. I prefer to make one large omelette instead of two individual ones and just cut it up in half. The only preparation required is pulling the ingredients out of your refrigerator and you have a Chinese delicacy in under 10 minutes. |

To Make The Filling

To Make The Omelette
Heat a pan and add the butter. Combine eggs, water and seasoning in a bowl. Beat lightly till fluffy. Pour into the pan and using a fork, quickly draw the mixture from the sides of the pan to the center, allowing the uncooked eggs to run underneath. Cook for a few seconds. Place the filling in the center, fold the omelette in half and serve at once. |
