Who'd have thought that crunchy dilis (dried fish) would be so delicious in an omelet? The dilis are first fried to a crisp before being added to scrambled eggs. What you get is a hearty omelet with lots of crunchy bits.

How to Cook Tortang Dilis

In a small frying pan over medium heat, heat oil. Once hot, add the dilis. Cook the dilis, stirring, just until golden brown and crisp. Remove the pan from the heat, and using a slotted spoon, scoop the tiny fish from the hot oil and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside.

In a bowl, beat the eggs. Lightly season with ground black pepper. Add the crunchy dilis to the eggs, and stir to coat.

In the same frying pan used to fry the dilis, drain the oil, reserving about 2 tablespoons in the pan. Add the egg and dilis mix to the hot pan, spreading the dilis out to the edges.

Cook until the edges are set and the center is firm before flipping to cook the other side. Remove from heat. Serve, sliced, with garlic rice.
