I first tasted this dish in Kim Gary, the Hong Kong themed restaurant, when I ordered fish wrapped in egg on a bed of vegetable rice. When I ate it, I thought it was one of the best things I’d ever eaten! So, the next time the cooking bug hit me, I decided to try to replicate it at home.
You Need:
- 2 packs of fish fillets – I used the frozen dory ones from the supermarket
- Soy sauce and pepper to season
- 3 Eggs
- Dash of oil
How To:
- First season the thawed fish fillets with soy sauce and pepper. I like mine nice and peppery so I often give it a healthy dash of pepper.
- Pan-fry the fish in a non-stick pan, you’ll need very little oil or hardly any at all.
- Once it’s cooked through, remove it and set it aside.
- Beat up your eggs.
- Pour in a little bit in the pan and swirl it around so that it makes a thin omelette.
- Place the fish in the middle of the omelette and wrap it up so it makes a parcel.
Serves about 3-4 pax.
That picture doesn’t look too appetising as my omelettes were a bit thick so the fish didn’t wrap up in it too well but it tastes very good! Especially when served with a garlic fried rice or fried rice with chopped vegies.

I am absolutely hopeless when it comes to cooking fish. I have no concept of that.. but I can make a mean fish fingers, so maybe I could try the omelette with fish fingers instead, hor?
PE says: Fish is my favourite meat! But sure you can do it with fish fingers too
Actually, this dish works really well with white fish fillets like anything you can pick up in the market and supermarket!
I have not been to Kim Gary since it opened in the Curve… my family absolutely refuses to set foot in there. So I guess I shall have to imagine what this dish tastes like…
PE says: Why the Kim Gary boycott?
my mom make pretty good battered dory fish fillet as well. a bit of egg, and some corn flour to make it slightly crispier. yum!
PE says: Yum yum! Does she pan fry or deep fry it?
