Omelette + Onions

On some nights, I would need food, but I didn't need fancy. The man went out for drinks, and that meant I was free to eat what I wanted. A one-dish meal suits me fine any day. I didn't feel like going out. I severely lacked sleep and wasn't good company for anyone. (Thanks, crazy thunderstorms in the wee hours and a nervous dog.) I wanted to read, and watch a bit of Netflix and Hulu. Between getting take-out, ordering in delivery and cooking a simple meal at home, I opted to cook. 

Whipped up a Thai style omelette with onions (ไข่เจียว, khai jeaw). Went for broke and used FOUR eggs. Minced pork could be added too, but I didn't feel like having meat in it tonight. Didn't even want tomatoes in it. So onions it would be for that savory punch. There's truly nothing fancy or difficult in this meal. Eggs are an easy tasty hot food. I considered frying up spam too, but never mind. That could be saved for another day. #ImpieCooks2021

For a total indulgence in the carbs, I ate the meal with steamed jasmine white rice. Mmmmm. I love having that with a ton of fish sauce and chilli padi. I heated up a bowl of old cucumber and pork rib soup in the fridge from the last night's dinner. Just soup, no bones or meat in that. Yah, my own cooking, so I knew that the soup would totally complement the carbs, omelette and fish sauce. Hahahaha. It was an extremely satisfying fuss-free meal for one.
