Omurice
Japanese tomato rice and Omelette developed around 1920 in Tokyo it’s now incredibly popular in Japan. Having dedicated Omurice Restaurants that just sell the Omelette with many different fillings in! Traditionally the omelette has a runny middle and is cut over the rice so it runs out on to the mound of rice. They have little metal oval rice moulds, I have just used a oval dish instead. It shouldn’t have any colour on the omelette either, well I did try anyhow. Good job my dog loves eggs!
Who would have thought a Omelette would be so tricky to make, after so many You Tube tutorials and many disasters it’s sort of here! To get the same flavour you can just roll up an omelette if you don’t have the time to make it the traditional way.
I’m doing this for my ‘throw it in Thursday’ feature for BBC Radio Derby. To go with the Olympic theme!
Thank you @deanyeatsworld @sam_can_cook for telling me about this recipe over a delicious lunch at Eat Tokyo at the weekend! X

Super Omurice 2 Super Omurice 2
A self-proclaimed omurice researcher created the ultimate omurice. This omurice surpasses the super omurice barrier. Honestly, it's tastier than what you get at a restaurant. Adding paprika powder to my previous recipe has added depth. This is my highest achievement so far. The chicken rice is incredibly delicious. I don't want this omurice to disappear when I'm gone, so I've written the chicken rice recipe here without holding back. Making a perfect omelet requires practice, so feel free to do it your way. If you give me feedback, I'll work even harder on my research, so please do (bowing deeply).

If you cook veggie-packed ketchup rice in a rice cooker, all you have to do is cook the eggs and place them on top for delicious omurice! Both kids and adults love it.Recipe background:When I used to make a single serving, I would season and stir-fry plain rice, but making five servings at once in a frying pan was tough. Stir-frying until the seasonings were evenly mixed made the rice mushy. This recipe adjusts the amount of seasonings and water so you can make a large batch of omurice rice at once.
