Roast the eggplant over open flame until the whole eggplant becomes soft and juicy, then fully peel the skin.

Step 2

In a separate shallow bowl, whisk together two eggs, fish sauce, salt, and pepper. Note: the amount of salt depends on the saltiness of your fish sauce

Step 3

Place the eggplant in the egg mixture. Using a fork, gently scrape the eggplant to flatten it out across the egg mixture. It should look like a fan.

Step 4

Heat some oil on a medium nonstick pan, then pour in the omelette and eggplant.

Step 5

Once the bottom side is cooked, flip the omelette over.

Step 6

Remove from the pan and serve hot with a side of rice and dips (optional).
