====== Khai Jiao (Thai Omelet) ======
----

===== Ingredients: =====
  * 2 large eggs
  * 1/2 tsp lime juice or vinegar
  * 1 tsp Thai fish sauce
  * 1 Tb water
  * 1 Tb rice flour or cornstarch
  * 3/4 to 1 cup vegetable oil
  * Jasmine rice
  * Sriracha sauce (optional)

===== Directions: =====
  - Combine eggs, lime juice / vinegar, fish sauce, water, and rice flour / cornstarch in a medium bowl.   Beat with a fork until frothy.  If the flour forms a few lumps, break up as many as possible with your fingers.
  - Heat the vegetable oil in a small pot or round-bottom wok set over medium-high heat until lightly smoking.  Hold the egg bowl about 1 ft. above the pan and pour the egg mixture into the oil in one go.
  - The egg mixture will immediately puff up.  Do not disturb it.  After 20 sec., flip the omelet.  There's no need to keep it nice and round; we want asymmetrical edges.  Let the other side cook for another 20 sec.  Remove the omelet from the pan and serve over steamed jasmine rice immediately.
