Thai-Style Omelet With Fresh Vegetable Garnish
"Not a strictly traditional Thai recipe per se,but a very good recipe true to Thai flavors,this has been a recipe I've made over and over throughout the years.It is quick,simple,healthy and uses ingredients I always have.Thai chiles are nice here,of course,but I usually use serrano or jalapeno chiles since thats what I have on hand.Sometimes I cook the green onion,chiles,and cilantro in the omelet,sometimes I reserve some or all of them as a garnish.The beauty of this recipe is it is easy and flexible;do whatever feels right and it will taste good!"
