Taiwanese Dried Radish Omelette
Taiwanese style dried radish omelette is also called Tsai Po Nan in Taiwanese. This is a fast and simple traditional home-style dish which I like to have with porridge, but you can certainly serve it with rice.
Dried radish is made from turnip or daikon and has been preserved and sun-dried. It is usually salty and crunchy. You can get it at almost all Chinese markets like Ranch 99 in the dried vegetable section. There are many different brands and if you make enough of this dish, you will surely have one of your favorite brands to go to whenever you want to make this dish. One of those store-bought dried daikon radishes can last you for many months because you don’t need a lot to make one dish.

Before you start making this dish, soak the dried radish in water for about 30 minutes to an hour. Make sure the radish is fully submerged. Because the dried radish is salty, doing this will take some of the saltiness out and soften the radish. After soaking, chop up the radish into fine dices.

Thinly slice the green onion.

In a clean bowl, beat 3 eggs and add ¼ tsp of sugar. Mix well. This will balance out the saltiness in the dried radish.

In a pan, heat up ½ tsp of sesame oil and ½ tsp of vegetable oil. Then add the sliced green onion and sauté until fragrant. About 15 seconds later, add the diced radish and continue to sauté for one more minute. Set the sautéed green onion and radish aside to cool off.

Combine the sautéed mixture into the beaten egg

In a clean pan, add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil. Make sure the oil evenly coats the pan.
- 7
Pour in the egg mixture and fry over medium-high heat. You can also cover the pan with a lid to speed up the process. Lower the heat accordingly so you won’t burn the bottom side.

When the surface of the omelette has set and the bottom is golden, carefully flip the omelette. Continue frying to brown up the other side as well. You can flip the omelette a few more times. This will ensure it cook through and golden on both sides.

Finally, remove the omelette from the heat and serve.
