Brilio.net - Omelette is one of the side dishes that is never absent in Padang restaurants. Unlike regular omelettes, Padang-style omelettes have a significant thickness, giving them a more delicious and filling taste. In addition, the uniqueness of this omelet is its ability to remain firm and not easily deflated even after being served for some time. This is what makes Padang omelettes so popular with many people.
The process of making a thick, dense Padang omelet involves mixing typical spices such as shallots, chilies, and spring onions, which are then fried until golden brown. But now, many people choose to add other ingredients, such as flour, water, or tofu to increase its volume.
Unfortunately, the addition of flour, water, and tofu can certainly also affect the taste of the cooked omelet. Well, as a substitute, you can make a Padang-style omelet with a recipe from YouTube user Bellarfn. In one of the videos uploaded, he claims to be able to make a thick, dense, and non-smooth omelet.
As reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Bellarfn on Tuesday (7/1), the first thing to do is to prepare the ingredients first. He uses eggs and various spices, such as red chilies, shallots, garlic, and chopped spring onions. Well, make sure there are enough spring onions to add volume to the omelet later.

Next, put all the sliced spices into a bowl. Then add 6 eggs. Don't forget to add seasonings, such as pepper, salt, and powdered broth. If so, beat the egg mixture until it is completely even.

After that, prepare two frying pans that have been filled with enough oil and heated. Then pour the egg mixture into one of the pans. If so, reduce the heat of the stove and pour the hot oil from the second pan.
"It's used to fry the middle of the egg so it cooks evenly," said YouTube Bellarfn.

In the middle of this frying stage, increase the heat and continuously pour the top of the egg with hot oil. Do this process until dry, then flip and fry the bottom of the egg. Shortly after flipping, reduce the heat again and wait until all parts are perfectly cooked.

Well, the perfectly cooked omelet can be immediately lifted and drained. If you want to eat it, you can cut this omelet into several pieces. When cut, the middle part will look thick and very dense. On the other hand, this omelet does not deflate even though it is cold because it is not mixed with water.
Having been watched more than 7 million times, this video on how to make an omelet has immediately attracted attention. Who would have thought, many other YouTube users then gave direct responses through one of the uploaded videos. Most of these netizens expressed their gratitude for getting new, useful knowledge.
