Omurice on plate.Omurice is a super simple, comforting, affordable Japanese dish that basically means "omelette rice." It's been a Japanese favorite for over 100 years. Once you try it, you'll see why. It's so easy to make and only has a handful of ingredients.

  8. beating egg with fork
     
  9. Heat remaining 1/2 tsp to the pan on medium heat and pour in eggs. Cook as if you were cooking a regular omelette. If you like yours fully set, keep mixing the middle of the omelette with your spatula and circle the pan around to get the uncooked portions to cook in the middle.

I'll happily keep the radish. I'm well known with my bandmates as "radish breath" AND PROUD! ;)
