Roti John (Singapore Omelette Sandwich)

Adapted from an internet recipe.
This is street food popular in Singapore and Malaysia, and it sounds very good. For this you can use baguettes or hot dog buns. When I make this, I may make the hot dog buns as well, I like a good challenge.

Servings 10 sandwiches

Ingredients
  

  • 500 grams ground beef, (1 lb)
  • 5 eggs, chicken or duck, beaten
  • ½ cup shallots, finely diced
  • 1 green chili, finely diced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 10 baguettes, or hot dog buns
  • cooking oil, as needed

For Toppings & Sauce

  • spring onions, sliced, white and green parts
  • green chili, sliced
  • tomato sauce
  • sweet chili sauce
  • Sriracha Chili Garlic sauce
  • mayo

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, add the ground beef and mix in the eggs, then mix in the shallots, chili, salt, and pepper.
  • Butterfly or split open the baguettes or hot dog buns, keeping them intact on on side.
  • Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large non stick pan, when the pan is hot, spread some egg mixture on the cut sides of the baguettes and place cut side down in the pan, cook for about 2-3 minutes to set the egg and brown the beef (it is a thin layer so it cooks quickly), then flip over and cook the other side for about 1 minute.
  • Serve with toppings and sauces as desired.

Notes

Low cost per serving.
Variant: 1. Use 2-3 cans sardines in olive oil, mashed in place of ground beef.
