Kimchi Omelet Recipe

So here’s my BLD recipe for you – a Kimchi Omelet. It’s full of savory vegetables (green onion and zucchini) and the chopped kimchi inside gives it a little spicy, crunchy, kick.

But kimchi isn’t the secret ingredient here – it’s actually the Mirin, or Japanese sweet rice wine that really brings it all together. The mirin gives the omelet just the right touch of sweetness to balance all of the flavors – so that you have salty, spicy, sour, savory and a tinge of sweet. Kimchi adds the spicy and sour.

This recipe only takes 10 minutes to make – perfect for either for breakfast, lunch or dinner….BLD FTW!

How to make a Kimchi Omelet

Here’s whatcha need:

Start by beating the eggs together with the mirin in a mixing bowl.

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add the zucchini, green onion and kimchi and saute for about 2 minutes.

Then, pour in the eggs with mirin.

Season with salt and pepper then turn down the heat to medium. Cover the skillet and cook until the egg is nearly set, about 2 minutes.

Fold the omelet in half and serve.
