Nasi Goreng Pattaya Recipe (Pattaya Fried Rice)

Nasi Goreng Pattaya or known as Nasi Pattaya by many Malaysian is amongst the popular selection in Malay restaurants or stalls in Malaysia. The dish is simply chicken or prawn fried rice that covered or wrapped with omelet (Telur Dadar) and served with chili sauce and chicken soup (optional). The name makes me wonder if the dish was originally from Pattaya, Thailand.


So, I did a research on Nasi Pattaya and amazingly found another dish that exactly the same called Omurice. Omurice or also known as Omelet Rice is a one of popular dish in Japan. I am confused. Anyone have any idea who should get the credit?



INGREDIENTS:

4 cups of boiled rice
1 slice of chicken breast (cut into small pieces)
5 cloves of shallot (finely chopped)
3-4 cloves of garlic (finely chopped)
1 capsicum (cut into small pieces)
1 carrot (cut into small pieces)
3 eggs
Some cooking oil
Salt to taste

HOW TO:

Step one (Fried Rice): Heat the oil and fry shallots and garlic until fragrant. Then add chicken and continue frying about 2 minutes. Add carrot and capsicum continues frying for about 3 minutes. Add one egg and stir well. Finally add rice and some salt. Continue to stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

Step two (Omelet Wrap): Whisk 2 eggs with a bit of salt. Heat some oil into a frying pan. Add the whisked eggs to make omelet. Once ready put a cup of fried rice at the center of the omelet and wrap it up.
