instructions
    1

    Crack the eggs into a bowl, add salt, and whisk them together until they're fully blended, which should take about 2 minutes.

    2

    Finely chop the green onion and grate the carrot (this should take about 3 minutes).

    3

    Combine the chopped green onion and grated carrot with the eggs, mixing well for about 1 minute.

    4

    Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, letting it warm for about 1 minute.

    5

    Pour a portion of the egg mixture into the pan, just enough to cover the bottom, and let it cook for about 2 minutes or until the edges start to firm up.

    6

    Using a spatula, carefully roll the omelette from one side to the other, keeping it tight. Push the rolled omelette to one side of the pan.

    7

    Add another tablespoon of oil if necessary and pour in another portion of the egg mixture, ensuring it spreads under the rolled omelette. Cook for about 2 minutes.

    8

    Once set, roll the omelette again towards the opposite side. Repeat this process until all the egg mixture is used.

    9

    Once done, remove the rolled omelette from the pan and let it cool slightly before slicing into bite-sized pieces. This should take about 2 minutes.

    10

    Serve warm and enjoy, perhaps with a soy sauce dipping on the side.
