01

Add a splash of neutral oil to a small non-stick pan. Ensure your pan is not overly hot, controlling the temperature is key.

02

Pour the beaten eggs into the pan.

03

Tap the pan lightly to check if the bottom of the omelette has seared nicely.

04

Using chopsticks, pull the edges of the egg toward the center and begin turning the pan gently. Take your time to form the signature tornado swirl.

05

As the omelette begins to take shape, lower the heat.

06

Carefully slide the finished omelette out of the pan and drape it over your portion of homemade vegetable rice.

07

Pour warm demi-glace sauce around the base to accompany the omelette.

08

Finish with freshly cracked black pepper and serve immediately.
