1clovegarlicfinely mashed or grated
1tablespoonVegetable oil

Instructions
In a bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, green onion, most of the coriander.
Heat the oil in the frying pan to a medium heat, and when it is hot give it a swirl to coat the pan and add the chilli, spices and garlic. Stir in the pan for about 30 seconds and then carefully pour in the egg mixture. Again, give is a swirl. I like to use a spatula to move the mixture around to even it out and help the cooking. Don’t do this too much, or you’ll end up with scrambled eggs!
After about 3 minutes, the base should be cooked and most of the omelette gelled together. Carefully, flip the omelette to cook on the other side for about 2 minutes, or until you like it.
Slide it onto a plate, folding it if you like. Rain the rest of the coriander down on it, pour a good cup of tea and chow down.
