![]() Stuffed Omelet (khai yat sai)
ไข่ยัดไส้ One of my favourite dishes in Thailand that isn't spicy is "stuffed omelet" or "khai yat sai" in Thai. It is a little tricky making the egg envelope. It works best with a big wok and a gas flame. In the ingredients pictured below, you can see carrots, onion, minced pork, tomato, coconut milk, 4 eggs and peas in the middle. Make sure that everything is chopped up small. You can also use garlic if you like. ![]() Heat some oil up in the wok and then add the minced pork. Stir fry for a few minutes and then add the carrots, onions, peas and tomatoes. Season with light soy sauce, oyster sauce and a pinch of pepper and salt. If it tastes too salty then add some sugar. When cooked put to one side. Heat some oil in a wok again making sure that the sides heat up as well. Beat the eggs together with some coconut milk. Once the wok is hot enough, pour a small amount of egg into the wok and tip it back and forth in order produce a thin layer all around the wok. Once it is nearly done, add several spoonfuls of your minced pork mixture. Now comes the hard part of wrapping this up and making a kind of parcel.
