Omurice [Bulkbites.com]

• Servings: 5
• Time: 40 minutes

This is basically a Korean dish that can be prepared at home easily and quickly. It essentially contains fried rice that is enclosed in an egg crepe. As such the dish is quite flexible. For example, you can prepare this dish by using leftover ham or ground beef and then serve it with ketchup placed at its center. You also have the option of starting the dish with the preparation of pork or rice. However, I prefer preparing pork first up. This dish is extremely fulfilling. A couple of Omurice is enough to fill your stomach just before you go to the bed.
