Have I mentioned that I love eggs? I never tire of egg dishes. It doesn’t matter where they’re complex egg dishes with a host of spices, or just fried or boiled plain. To me, they’re delicious and I like them all! Thankfully, the world is blessed with so many egg recipes – and Indonesia contributes its fair share. This allows me to embark on many new adventures to satisfy my love for eggs.

One of the egg dishes I like is telur dadar gobal gabul, or gobal gabul omelette. I’m not really sure what gobal gabul means, but the dish is basically an omelette cooked with chillies, shallots and spring onions, and then deep fried. It’s so easy to make, yummy, and most importantly, saves me from having to eat plain steamed white rice with nothing else. After all, why would I need other dishes when telur dadar global gabul can complete my meal all on its own? I want the dish to be the star of my lunch!

Making telur dadar gobal gabul is super easy. Just prepare the egg as if you want to make an omelette. That would consist of breaking some eggs in a bowl and adding some salt. Then, add sliced shallots, spring onions and chillies. If you don’t like chilli, just leave the chilli alone. The chilli probably doesn’t like you either. Kidding. I am a chilli lover, so to be honest, the omelette you see in the photos contains a lot more chillies than stated in the recipe. You can see the chillies are poking out of the omelette, wanting to show off. It was very spicy, but so satisfyingly good!

Right after cooking it, I seriously couldn’t resist it, especially with the aroma of freshly fried egg, dotted with red chillies, shallots and spring onions. I finished it off as quickly as I could.

This dish is definitely a really good option if you want to have a simple, yet satisfying meal.
