Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Warm the cooked rice in a skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until heated through, ~3 minutes. Transfer to plates.

  2. Step 2

    Whisk eggs with fish sauce and a pinch of salt until smooth and pale, ~1 minute.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, ~90 seconds.

  4. Step 4

    Add minced garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pour in egg mixture and let it set at the edges for 10 seconds without stirring.

  5. Step 5

    Scatter crab stick over half the omelette. Using a spatula, fold the omelette in half over the filling. Cook until the center is just set but still tender, ~1 minute.

  6. Step 6

    Slide omelette onto rice. Squeeze lime juice over the top and serve immediately.
