TIPS

• Rice - rice kept over night works the best, but if you are making the day of, just make the rice few hours in advance and turn the power off after it finished cooking. Open the rice cooker lid. 
• Chili paste - you can use any type of chili sauce/paste. 
• Milk in the omelet make it fluffy.
