Omurice is a short form of omelet and rice, the two essential ingredients of this Japanese fusion dish. The rice is usually pan-fried together with chicken and ketchup, then wrapped in a thin omelet sheet. Finally, the dish is generously covered with ketchup.Occasionally, scrambled eggs can be put on top of the rice, and ketchup can be substituted with demi-glace sauce. Omurice is one of many Japanese dishes influenced by Western cooking techniques and ingredients. Although it has become a traditional Japanese dish, it is usually prepared at home or served in non-traditional Japanese restaurants. Yum
